How does this line embody the thematic conflict that defines The Great Gatsby ?        Sometimes human beings have the tendency to hang on to an event that has transpired, Why?  The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald exposes readers to problematic situations that take  place because a character feels attached to something from the past and another is inflexible.

Gatsby interferes with the life of daisy, and his presence creates conflicts throughout the whole book. Tom is an antagonist, who doesn't allow others to take away from his belongings, in this case, daisy. Therefore the line "So we beat on
