Ernest Hemingway
In order to be a great writer a person must have a built-in, shockproof crap detector.

Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
When things are going well, I like to have people to share it with. I've been alone in troubled times, and I don't mind that. Some things have to be endured alone. As Hemingway said, the human being is strong in all the broken places.
Ernest Hemingway
I was so sentimental about you I'd break any one's heart for you. My, I was a damned fool. I broke my own heart, too. It's broken and gone. Everything I believe in and everything I cared about I left for you because you were so wonderful and you loved me so much that love was all that mattered. Love was the greatest thing, wasn't it?
Ernest Hemingway
Never sit a table when you can stand at the bar.
Ernest Hemingway
But perhaps he had enough animal strength and detached intelligence that he could make another start.
Ernest Hemingway
How did you go bankrupt? Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.
Ernest Hemingway
I would take anything I love and throw it off the highest cliff you ever saw and not wait to hear it bounce.
Ernest Hemingway
