More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
Never sit a table when you can stand at the bar.
Ernest Hemingway
No Pilar, Agustin said. You are not smart. You are brave. You are loyal. You have decision. You have intuition. Much decision and much heart. But you are not smart.
Ernest Hemingway
Madame, all stories, if continued far enough, end in death, and he is no true-story teller who would keep that from you.
Ernest Hemingway
Never go on trips with anyone you do not love.
Ernest Hemingway
Never mistake motion for action.
Ernest Hemingway
Only one marriage I regret. I remember after I got that marriage license I went across from the license bureau to a bar for a drink. The bartender said, What will you have, sir? And I said, A glass of hemlock.
Ernest Hemingway
Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.
Ernest Hemingway
I kept this to remind me of you trying to brush away the Villa Rossa from your teeth in the morning, swearing and eating aspirin and cursing harlots. Every time I see that glass I think of you trying to clean your conscience with a toothbrush.
Ernest Hemingway
No catalogue of horrors ever kept men from war. Before the war you always think that it's not you that dies. But you will die, brother, if you go to it long enough.
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
We are all apprentices in a craft where no one ever becomes a master.
Ernest Hemingway
All stories, if continued far enough, end in death, and he is no true-story teller who would keep that from you. Especially do all stories of monogamy end in death, and your man who is monogamous while he often lives most happily, dies in the most lonely fashion.
Ernest Hemingway
Each day of not writing, of comfort, of being that which he despised, dulled his ability and softened his will to work so that, finally, he did no work at all.
Ernest Hemingway
Would you please please please please please please please stop talking?
Ernest Hemingway
It seemed out of place to think of consequences during the fiesta.
Ernest Hemingway
The old man looked at him with his sun-burned, confident loving eyes.
Ernest Hemingway
He remembered poor Julian [actually F. Scott Fitzgerald] and his romantic awe of them and how he had started a story once that began, The very rich are different from you and me. And how someone had said to Julian, Yes, they have more money.
Ernest Hemingway
But did thee feel the earth move?
Ernest Hemingway
He was violating the second rule of the two rules for getting on well with people that speak Spanish give the men tobacco and leave the women alone
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
