Ernest Hemingway
Why do old men wake so early? Is it to have one longer day?
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
He could beat anything, he thought, because no thing could hurt him if he did not care.
Ernest Hemingway
To hell with them. Nothing hurts if you don't let it.
Ernest Hemingway
You are so brave and quiet I forget you are suffering.
Ernest Hemingway
The only thing that could spoil a day was people. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.
Ernest Hemingway
