More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
Good dialogue is not real speech-it's the illusion of real speech.
Ernest Hemingway
The cat has complete emotional honesty - an attribute not often found in humans.
Ernest Hemingway
The best way is always to stop when you are going good and when you know what will happen next. If you do that every day when you are writing a novel you will never be stuck. That is the most valuable thing I can tell you so try to remember it.
Ernest Hemingway
Though there is one part of writing that is solid and you do it no harm by talking about it, the other is fragile, and if you talk about it, the structure cracks and you have nothing.
Ernest Hemingway
I think you should learn about writing from everybody who has ever written that has anything to teach you
Ernest Hemingway
Being against evil doesn't make you good. Tonight I was against it and then I was evil myself. I could feel it coming just like a tide... I just want to destroy them. But when you start taking pleasure in it you are awfully close to the thing you're fighting.
Ernest Hemingway
Let him think is I am more man than I am and I will be so.
Ernest Hemingway
The English talked with inflected phrases. One phrase to mean everything.
Ernest Hemingway
How would that premise stand up if he examined it? That was probably why the Communists were always cracking down on Bohemiansism. When you were drunk or when you committed adultery you recognised your own personal fallability of that so mutable substitute for the apostles' creed, the party line. Down with Bohemianism, the sin of Majakowski.
Ernest Hemingway
She was looking into my eyes with that way she had of looking that made you wonder whether she really saw out of her own eyes. They would look on and on after every one else's eyes in the world would have stopped looking. She looked as though there were nothing on earth she would not look at like that, and really she was afraid of so many things.
Ernest Hemingway
Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.
Ernest Hemingway
If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them.
Ernest Hemingway
Go all the way with it. Do not back off. For once, go all the goddamn way with what matters.
Ernest Hemingway
You know lots of criticism is written by characters who are very academic and think it is a sign you are worthless if you make jokes or kid or even clown. I wouldn't kid Our Lord if he was on the cross. But I would attempt a joke with him if I ran into him chasing the money changers out of the temple.
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
All good books have one thing in common - they are truer than if they had really happened.
Ernest Hemingway
You never understand anybody that loves you.
Ernest Hemingway
In the morning there was a big wind blowing and the waves were running high up on the beach and he was awake a long time before he remembered that his heart was broken.
Ernest Hemingway
We're stronger in the places that we've been broken.
Ernest Hemingway
Maybe...you'll fall in love with me all over again. Hell, I said, I love you enough now. What do you want to do? Ruin me? Yes. I want to ruin you. Good, I said. That's what I want too.
Ernest Hemingway
