My favorite F. Scott Fitzgerald quote, "...and the female hell is deadlier than the male," (from an obscure short story Offshore Pirate) is SO Katie Hill. Her resilience means she's destined for greater things; thanks for spotlighting her.
Here's the entire quote and I'd bet my life that Zelda said/wrote it: "I don't want to sound like Pollyanna but you haven't grasped me yet. My courage is faith - faith in the eternal resilience of me - that joy'll come back and hope and spontaneity. And I feel that 'til it does, I've got to keep my lips shut and my chin high, and my eyes wide- not necessarily any silly smiling. Oh, I've been through hell without a white quite often and the female hell is deadlier than the male."

That's a great quote (I wonder if Zelda actually wrote it...)

Thank you for this piece. She's an amazing woman and I hope if she wants she can serve in Congress again.
