More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
His talent was as natural as the pattern that was made by the dust on a butterfly's wings. At one time he understood it no more than the butterfly did and he did not know when it was brushed or marred.
Ernest Hemingway
Some writers are only born to help another writer write one sentence.
Ernest Hemingway
I always like it at a war. There is always the chance that you will get up the next morning and be killed and not have to write.
Ernest Hemingway
You can write anytime people will leave you alone and not interrupt you.
Ernest Hemingway
I wish I could write well enough to write about aircraft. Faulkner did it very well in Pylon but you cannot do something someone else has done though you might have done it if they hadn't.
Ernest Hemingway
Humility is not disgraceful, and carries no loss of true pride.
Ernest Hemingway
They were beaten to start with. They were beaten when they took them from their farms and put them in the army. That is why the peasant has wisdom, because he is defeated from the start. Put him in power and see how wise he is.
Ernest Hemingway
If you have a success, you have it for the wrong reasons. If you become popular it is always because of the worst aspects of your work.
Ernest Hemingway
Once writing has become your major vice and greatest pleasure only death can stop it. Financial security then is a great help as it keeps you from worrying.
Ernest Hemingway
If the others heard me talking out loud they would think that I am crazy. But since I am not, I do not care.
Ernest Hemingway
One cat just leads to another. The place is so damned big it doesn't really seem as though there were many cats until you see them all moving like a mass migration at feeding time.
Ernest Hemingway
Because Fascism is a lie, it is condemned to literary sterility. And when it is past, it will have no history, except the bloody history of murder.
Ernest Hemingway
Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry: Worry never fixes anything.
Ernest Hemingway
Sometimes you know the story. Sometimes you make it up as you go along and have no idea how it will come out.
Ernest Hemingway
Fear of death increases in exact proportion to increase in wealth.
Ernest Hemingway
Everything that's innocent to us is crazy to them.
Ernest Hemingway
There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.
Ernest Hemingway
The world was not wheeling anymore. It was just very clear and bright and inclined to blur at the edges.
Ernest Hemingway
When you have a child, the world has a hostage.
Ernest Hemingway
Go all the way with it. Do not back off. For once, go all the goddamn way with what matters.
