Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry: Worry never fixes anything.

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 good parts of a book may be only something a writer is lucky enough to overhear or it may be the wreck of his whole damn life - and one is as good as another.
Ernest Hemingway
He knew he would not be afraid. Even if he ever was afraid he knew that he could do it anyway.
Ernest Hemingway
Practice any faith you wish. Got a ball field up the island where you can practice. I'll give the Deity a fast one high and inside if he crowds the plate.
Ernest Hemingway
Ascensions into heaven are like falling leaves sad and happy all at the same time Going away isn't really sad especially when your going enables a new kind of presence to be born.
Ernest Hemingway

Worry destroys the ability to write.
Ernest Hemingway
Never confuse movement with action.
Ernest Hemingway
The fish is my friend too...I have never seen or heard of such a fish. But I must kill him. I am glad we do not have to try to kill the stars. Imagine if each day a man must try to kill the moon, he thought. The moon runs away. But imagine if a man each day should have to try to kill the sun? We were born lucky he thought
Ernest Hemingway
Life breaks all of us but some of us get stronger in the broken places.
Ernest Hemingway
War is no longer made by simply analyzed economic forces if it ever was. War is made or planned now by individual men, demagogues and dictators who play on the patriotism of their people to mislead them into a belief in the great fallacy of war when all their vaunted reforms have failed to satisfy the people they misrule.
Ernest Hemingway
No, that is the great fallacy: the wisdom of old men. They do not grow wise. They grow careful.
Ernest Hemingway
Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.
Ernest Hemingway
Kilimanjaro is a snow-covered mountain 19,710 feet high, and is said to be the highest mountain in Africa. Its western summit is called the Masai 'Ngaje Ngai', the House of God. Close to the western summit there is a dried and frozen carcas of a leopard. No one has explained what the leopard was seeking at that altitude.
Ernest Hemingway
The great thing is to last and get your work done and see and hear and learn and understand and write when there is something that you know and not before, and not too damned much after.
Ernest Hemingway
The shortest answer is doing the thing.
Ernest Hemingway
There isn't any me. I'm you. Don't make up a separate me.
Ernest Hemingway
It is good that we do not have to try to kill the sun or the moon or the stars. It is enough to live on the sea and kill our true brothers.
Ernest Hemingway
Bigotry is an odd thing. To be bigoted you have to be absolutely sure you are right and nothing makes that surety and righteousness like continence. Continence is the foe of heresy.
Ernest Hemingway
