Nick first sees Jay Gatsby standing on the edge of his dock, reaching out towards the green light across the bay. This iconic image occurs in Chapter 1 of "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
At the end of Chapter 1 of The Great Gatsby, Nick Carraway sees Gatsby step out of his house, observe the stars, and then stretch his arms out, trembling, towards the green light across the water.
When Gatsby attempts to bribe Nick, the reader learns that Gatsby is willing to use his wealth to get what he wants and that he sees money as a solution to problems. In contrast, the reader sees that Nick values integrity and honesty over material wealth, as he declines Gatsby's offer and remains loyal to his own values.
Gatsby is exempt from Nick's reaction to his fabricated past and questionable methods of gaining wealth because Nick admires Gatsby's dream, determination, and capacity for hope. Nick sees Gatsby as representing the American Dream and views him as a fundamentally good person amidst a world of moral decay and superficiality.
Nick's attitude towards Gatsby is ambivalent because, while he admires Gatsby's idealism and passion, he also sees the emptiness and superficiality of Gatsby's world. As he says goodbye to Gatsby, Nick is torn between understanding and sympathizing with Gatsby's pursuit of the American Dream, and acknowledging the futility and tragedy of Gatsby's life.
Nick is impressed by Gatsby's aura of mystery and elegance, as well as his confidence and charisma. It is clear that Gatsby holds a certain allure and charm that captivates those around him.
Nick believes Gatsby's story about the war because he sees the genuine emotion and passion in Gatsby's recounting of his experiences. Gatsby's detailed descriptions and conviction make Nick trust him, despite there being no concrete evidence to prove the truth of the story. Additionally, Nick admires Gatsby and wants to believe in the best in him.
Nick has a complex relationship with Gatsby. Initially, Nick admires Gatsby's ambition and his ability to reinvent himself. However, as the novel progresses, Nick becomes disillusioned with Gatsby's pursuit of wealth and social status. Overall, Nick sees Gatsby as a tragic figure, caught up in the pursuit of an unattainable dream.
