In a strange way, Gatsby isn't evil or greedy, he's just like the rest of us: yearning for love and his perfect lover. One aspect of Gatsby's greatness is the sheer magnificence of his dreams, the very nature of them. I don't mean his pursuit and attainment of wealth: the gorgeous house, big yellow car, flashy wardrobe. His dream was even more ambitious.
