The Great Gatsby In the novel, The Great Gatsby, the eyes of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg represents god, the all seeing and all knowing god, which society, cannot fool. George Wilson believes that the advertisement’s eyes are the eyes of god. “I spoke to her,” he muttered, after a long silence. “I told her she might fool me but she couldn’t fool God. I took her to her to the window, and I said ‘God knows what you’ve been doing everything you’ve been doing. You may fool me but you can’t fool God.” Fitzgerald explains that the eyes can see everything, including Myrtle’s affair. Myr
