More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
I am glad we do not have to try to kill the stars.
Ernest Hemingway
Anyone who says he wants to be a writer and isn't writing, doesn't.
Ernest Hemingway
Having books published is very destructive to writing. It is even worse than making love too much. Because when you make love too much at least you get a damned clarte that is like no other light. A very clear and hollow light.
Ernest Hemingway
You don't have to destroy me. Do you?
Ernest Hemingway
If a writer knows enough about what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to only one ninth of it being above water.
Ernest Hemingway
Life is pain, so live it up while you can.
Ernest Hemingway
You’ll ache. And you’re going to love it. It will crush you. And you’re still going to love all of it.
Ernest Hemingway
You cannot stop trusting people in life but I have learned to be a little bit careful. The way to make people trust-worthy is to trust them.
Ernest Hemingway
Man is not made for defeat.
Ernest Hemingway
I've been in love (truly) with five women, the Spanish Republic and the 4th Infantry Division.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
Somebody just back of you while you are fishing is as bad as someone looking over your shoulder while you write a letter to your girl.
Ernest Hemingway
I do not think I had ever seen a nastier-looking man. Under the black hat, when I had first seen them, the eyes had been those of an unsuccessful rapist.
Ernest Hemingway
Every damn thing is your own fault, if you are any good.
Ernest Hemingway
Cowards die a thousand deaths, but the brave only die once.
Ernest Hemingway
We ate well and cheaply and drank well and cheaply and slept well and warm together and loved each other.
Ernest Hemingway
As you get older it is harder to have heroes, but it is sort of necessary.
Ernest Hemingway
My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way.
Ernest Hemingway
He had loved too much, demanded too much, and he wore it all out.
Ernest Hemingway
Real seriousness in regard to writing being one of the two absolute necessities. The other, unfortunately, is talent.
Ernest Hemingway
