Some information about charachters of (on my opinion) main heroes:

Gatsby:
                “Her voice is full of money”
                “Can't repeat the past?” -  ”Why of course you can”
                “She never loved you, do you hear? She only married you because I was poor and she was tired of waiting for me. It was a terrible mistake, but in her heart she never loved anyone except me.”
                “I was raised in America but educated in Oxford.”
                "You always have a green light that burns all night at the end of your dock."               
                                       
                Gatsby’s character was-he was a smart man-but he thought money was his answer to everything. He thought that all Daisy cared about was money and he tried to impress her with his money. And he was sure that Daisy loved him because he had money. Gatsby believed in the "green light", it was a symbol of all his longings and wants.
 
 
Daisy:
                “All right...I'm glad it's a girl. And I hope she'll be a fool -- that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.”
                “I KNOW. I've been everywhere and seen everything and done everything…Sophisticated - God, I'm sophisticated.”
                “Oh, you want too much!” “I love you now-isn’t that enough? I can’t help what’s past. I did love him once-but I loved you too.”
                “Tom is getting very profound.”
             "Well, I've had a very bad time, Nick, and I'm pretty cynical about everything."

                Daisy’s character is all about her. She is very self-centered in her ways and she cares about her child; however, she doesn’t speak much about them because she wants to get back on the topic of herself. She thinks she is very “sophisticated”. She tells Gatsby that she loves him, but she really loves Nick too. And she thinks that Tom is getting too deep into everything. And she is distrusting of people because of things that had happened before.
 
 
Nick
                “Everyone suspects himself of at least one of the cardinal virtues, and this is mine: I am one of the few honest people that I have ever known"
                “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy - they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money of their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together; and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”
                “So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”
                “And what’s more, I love Daisy too.... Once in a while I go off on a spree and make a fool of myself, but I always come back, and in my heart I love her all the time.”
                "Gatsby turned out all right at the end; it is what preyed on Gatsby, what foul dust floated in the wake of his dreams that temporarily closed out my interest in the abortive sorrows and short-winded elations of men"

                Nick thinks of himself as a very honest man and when the going gets tough he believes you can get through it. He is in love with Daisy even though they go through the things they face. His character is strong willed man is not going to let something small get in the way of something bigger, his love for Daisy. And even if he had a problem with someone, he comes to the knowledge that they are okay in the end.
