More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
I might say that what amateurs call a style is usually only the unavoidable awkwardnesses in first trying to make something that has not heretofore been made.
Ernest Hemingway
He liked the works of his friends, which is beautiful as loyalty but can be disastrous as judgement.
Ernest Hemingway
Everyone my age had written a novel and I was still having difficulty writing a paragraph.
Ernest Hemingway
Would you please please please please please please please stop talking?
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
I drank a bottle of wine for company. It was Chateau Margaux. It was pleasant to be drinking slowly and to be tasting the wine and to be drinking alone. A bottle of wine was good company.
Ernest Hemingway
Maybe...you'll fall in love with me all over again. Hell, I said, I love you enough now. What do you want to do? Ruin me? Yes. I want to ruin you. Good, I said. That's what I want too.
Ernest Hemingway
I always like it at a war. There is always the chance that you will get up the next morning and be killed and not have to write.
Ernest Hemingway
You can write anytime people will leave you alone and not interrupt you.
Ernest Hemingway
The best writing is certainly when you are in love
Ernest Hemingway
Be fully in the moment,open yourself to the powerful energies dancing around you.
Ernest Hemingway
The best way is always to stop when you are going good and when you know what will happen next. If you do that every day when you are writing a novel you will never be stuck. That is the most valuable thing I can tell you so try to remember it.
Ernest Hemingway
Oh, darling, you will be good to me, won’t you? Because we’re going to have a strange life.
Ernest Hemingway
There are worse places to be than on your own.
Ernest Hemingway
I love you for all that you are, all that you have been, all that you're yet to be.
Ernest Hemingway
How did you go bankrupt? Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.
Ernest Hemingway
Nobody that ever left their own country ever wrote anything worth printing. Not even in the newspapers.
Ernest Hemingway
Organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness, but I doubt if they improve his writing.... For he does his work alone and if he is a good enough writer he must face eternity, or the lack of it, each day.
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
Ezra was right half the time, and when he was wrong, he was so wrong you were never in any doubt about it.
