In class discussion

In class we discussed the different symbols in the book. We talked about the green light, the valley of ashes, and the eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg. Something we didn't talk about in class is which one we found the most significant. If i was asked which one i found most significant in the book i would choose the green light. I find the green light the most significant because it is the most focused symbol used in the book i feel. Both Mr. Gatsby and Nick use the green light as either an example or a dream.  Mr. Gatsby uses it as a dream towards Daisy when Nick uses it as an example towards early America. The symbol of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg is also used quit frequently, but is not as significant as the green light.
