“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.”
― Francis Scott Fitzgerald

I love this quote so much! As someone who is starting over in school and in a new career I totally believe this is possible.

I love this quote too, but there is much debate about whether Fitzgerald should be given credit. More likely it was written into the screenplay for the movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. http://www.falmouthpubliclibrary.org/blog/the-curious-case-of-misquotation/

I love this so much! I need to make an art print out of it for myself.

This is actually from The Curious Case Of Benjamin Bunton. The movie not the original story. So unfortunately not by Fitzgerald.
