More quotes by Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
And this was the price you paid for sleeping together.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
Do you know how an ugly woman feels? Do you know what it is to be ugly all your life and inside to feel that you are beautiful? It is very rare.
Ernest Hemingway
You never kill any one that you want to kill in a war, he said to himself.
Ernest Hemingway
If two people love each other there can be no happy end to it.
Ernest Hemingway
Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.
Ernest Hemingway
But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.
Ernest Hemingway
You write a book like that you're fond of over the years, then you see that happen to it, it's like pissing in your father's beer.
Ernest Hemingway
