Today, everyone hears about celebrities with more money than they could ever need going crazy; no one would be overly surprised if a billionaire decided to search the Savannah for pink elephants or imagined he or she was the modern-day Moses.  When Fitzgerald writes of the ridiculously rich in his story “The Diamond as Big as the Ritz,” it isn’t just another story meant to teach a lesson with talking animals and the classic “Once upon a time…” beginning traditionally vital for a story to teach morals.  Fitzgerald uses a different approach: extreme exaggeration of what occurs in our time, his famous rhetoric making the impossible seem possible and the reality of greed and materialism terrifying enough to make anyone feel "a little tired of diamonds"  (Fitzgerald XI).
