More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
We ate well and cheaply and drank well and cheaply and slept well and warm together and loved each other.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
Time is the least thing we have.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
Enjoying living was learning to get your money's worth and knowing when you had it.
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
Work could cure almost anything
Ernest Hemingway
I never liked to hunt, you know. There was always the danger of having a horse fall on you.
Ernest Hemingway
When you give power to an executive you do not know who will be filling that position when the time of crisis comes.
Ernest Hemingway
For we have thought the longer thoughts And gone the shorter way. And we have danced to devils' tunes, Shivering home to pray To serve one master in the night, Another in the day.
Ernest Hemingway
A beautiful vacuum filled with wealthy monogamists, all powerful and members of the best families all drinking themselves to death.
