The better the writers the less they will speak about what they have written themselves.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
The clouds were building up now for the trade wind and he looked ahead and saw a flight of wild ducks etching themselves against the sky over the water, then blurring, then etching again and he knew no man was ever alone on the sea.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
He did not say that because he knew that if you said a good thing it might not happen.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
All you need to do is write truly and not care about what the fate of it is.
Ernest Hemingway

This beer is good for you. This is draft beer. Stick with the beer. Let's go and beat this guy up and come back and drink some more beer.

I don’t. I don’t want anybody else to touch you. I’m silly. I get furious if they touch you.
Ernest Hemingway

I know war as few other men now living know it, and nothing to me is more revolting. I have long advocated its complete abolition, as its very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a method of settling international disputes.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
It is a miserable thing to have people writing about your private life while you are alive. I have tried to stop it all that I could but there have been many abuses by people I trusted. 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

Poor Faulkner. Does he really think big emotions come from big words? He thinks I don’t know the ten-dollar words. I know them all right. But there are older and simpler and better words, and those are the ones I use.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
The things of the night cannot be explained in the day, because they do not then exist.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
Good dialogue is not real speech-it's the illusion of real speech.
Ernest Hemingway

[Robert] Capa: He was a good friend and a great and very brave photographer. It is bad luck for everybody that the percentages caught up with him. It is especially bad for Capa. (On Capa's death in Vietnam, May, 27, 1954)

But you always fall for somebody else and then it's all right. Fall for them but don't let them ruin you.
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.
