More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
You ought to dream. All our biggest businessmen have been dreamers.
Ernest Hemingway
I still need more healthy rest in order to work at my best. My health is the main capital I have and I want to administer it intelligently.
Ernest Hemingway
You love a lot of things if you live around them, but there isn't any woman and there isn't any horse, nor any before nor any after, that is as lovely as a great airplane.
Ernest Hemingway
There is seven-eights of it under water for every part that shows. Anything you know you can eliminate and it only strengthens your iceberg. It is the part that doesn't show. If a writer omits something because he does not know it then there is a hole in the story.
Ernest Hemingway
That is what we are supposed to do when we are at our best - make it all up - but make it up so truly that later it will happen that way.
Ernest Hemingway
As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.
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
Life breaks us all but in the end we are stronger in the broken places.
Ernest Hemingway
It's a town you come to for a short time.
Ernest Hemingway
I am so in love with you that there isn’t anything else.
Ernest Hemingway
Up the road, in his shack, the old man was sleeping again. He was still sleeping on his face and the boy was sitting by him watching him. The old man was dreaming about the lions.
Ernest Hemingway
The further you go in writing the more alone you are.
Ernest Hemingway
It is very bad for (an artist) to talk about how he (creates). It is not the (artist's) province to explain or to run guided tours through the more difficult country of his work. It's none of their business that you had to learn. Let them think you were born that way.
Ernest Hemingway
Why did they make birds so delicate and fine as those sea swallows when the ocean can be so cruel?
Ernest Hemingway
Perhaps wars weren't won anymore. Maybe they went on forever. Maybe it was another Hundred Years' War.
Ernest Hemingway
Everyone has his own conscience, and there should be no rules about how a conscience should function.
Ernest Hemingway
Hombre, there are bodegas open all night long.
Ernest Hemingway
Because Fascism is a lie, it is condemned to literary sterility. And when it is past, it will have no history, except the bloody history of murder.
Ernest Hemingway
In war, one cannot say what one feels.
Ernest Hemingway
There are only two places in the world where we can live happy: at home and in Paris.
Ernest Hemingway
