More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
For a true writer each book should be a new beginning where he tries again for something that is beyond attainment. He should always try for something that has never been done or that others have tried and failed. Then sometimes, with great luck, he will succeed.
Ernest Hemingway
Let those who want to save the world if you can get to see it clear and as a whole. Then any part you make will represent the whole if it's made truly. The thing to do is work and learn to make it.
Ernest Hemingway
You’re my religion. You’re all I’ve got.
Ernest Hemingway
A writer without a sense of justice or injustice would be better off editing the yearbook for a school for exceptional children.
Ernest Hemingway
Today is only one day in all the days that will ever be. But what will happen in all the other days that ever come can depend on what you do today. It's been that way all this year. It's been that way so many times. All of war is that way.
Ernest Hemingway
A writer's problem does not change. He himself changes and the world he lives in changes but his problem remains the same. It is always how to write truly and having found what is true, to project it is such a way that it becomes a part of the experience of the person who reads it.
Ernest Hemingway
You see I'm trying in all my stories to get the feeling of the actual life across, not just to depict life, or criticize it, but to actually make it alive.
Ernest Hemingway
Man is not made for defeat.
Ernest Hemingway
I wish I had died before I ever loved anyone but her.
Ernest Hemingway
Wine is the most civilized thing in the world.
Ernest Hemingway
As you get older it is harder to have heroes, but it is sort of necessary.
Ernest Hemingway
You'll lose it, if you talk about it
Ernest Hemingway
I've been in love (truly) with five women, the Spanish Republic and the 4th Infantry Division.
Ernest Hemingway
The cat has complete emotional honesty - an attribute not often found in humans.
Ernest Hemingway
It's a town you come to for a short time.
Ernest Hemingway
(World War I) was the most colossal, murderous, mismanaged butchery that has ever taken place on earth. Any writer who said otherwise lied, So the writers either wrote propaganda, shut up, or fought.
Ernest Hemingway
Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.
Ernest Hemingway
The best ammunition against lies is the truth, there is no ammunition against gossip. It is like a fog and the clear wind blows it away and the sun burns it off.
Ernest Hemingway
The worst death for anyone is to lose the center of his being, the thing he really is. Retirement is the filthiest word in the language. Whether by choice or by fate, to retire from what you do - and makes you what you are - is to back up into the grave.
Ernest Hemingway
The bicycle riders drank much wine, and were burned and browned by the sun. They did not take the race seriously except among themselves.
