More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
No, that is the great fallacy: the wisdom of old men. They do not grow wise. They grow careful.
Ernest Hemingway
(World War I) was the most colossal, murderous, mismanaged butchery that has ever taken place on earth. Any writer who said otherwise lied, So the writers either wrote propaganda, shut up, or fought.
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
Religion is like an ice cold whiskey on a hot day.
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
The best way to become a writer is to go off and write.
Ernest Hemingway
I would write one true sentence, and then go on from there.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
Switzerland is a small, steep country, much more up and down than sideways, and is all stuck over with large brown hotels built on the cuckoo clock style of architecture.
Ernest Hemingway
Eschew the monumental. Shun the Epic. All the guys who can paint great big pictures can paint great small ones.
Ernest Hemingway
When writing a novel a writer should create living people people not characters. A character is a caricature.
Ernest Hemingway
Thou wilt go now, rabbit. But I go with thee. As long as there is one of us there is both of us.
Ernest Hemingway
Life is pain, so live it up while you can.
Ernest Hemingway
It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.
Ernest Hemingway
Why should anybody be interested in some old man who was a failure?
Ernest Hemingway
Any man who eats dessert is not drinking enough.
Ernest Hemingway
And if there is not any such thing as a long time, nor the rest of your lives, nor from now on, but there is only now, why then now is the thing to praise and I am very happy with it.
Ernest Hemingway
I don't want to be your friend, baby. I am your friend.
Ernest Hemingway
Life breaks all of us but some of us get stronger in the broken places.
Ernest Hemingway
Why did they make birds so delicate and fine as those sea swallows when the ocean can be so cruel?
Ernest Hemingway
