Ernest Hemingway
The best way to become a writer is to go off and write.
Ernest Hemingway
No writer who knows the great writers who did not receive the Prize can accept it other than with humility. There is no need to list these writers. Everyone here may make his own list according to his knowledge and his conscience.
