Never mistake motive for action.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
You make something from things that have happened and from things that exist and from all things that you know and all those you cannot know, and you make something through your invention that is truer than anything true and alive, and if you make it well enough, you give it immortality.
Ernest Hemingway

At night, never go to bed without knowing what you'll write tomorrow.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
There is no friend as loyal as a book.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
No writer who knows the great writers who did not receive the Prize can accept it other than with humility. There is no need to list these writers. Everyone here may make his own list according to his knowledge and his conscience.
Ernest Hemingway

There is a mystery in all great writing and that mystery does not dissect out. It continues and is always valid.
Ernest Hemingway

You're going to write straight and simple and good now. That's the start.''What if I'm not straight and simple and good? Do you think I can write that way?''Write how you are but make it straight.
Ernest Hemingway

He liked the works of his friends, which is beautiful as loyalty but can be disastrous as judgement.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
As to Hemingway, I read him for the first time in the early 'forties, something about bells, balls and bulls, and loathed it.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
I've seen you, beauty, and you belong to me now, whoever you are waiting for and if I never see you again, I thought. You belong to me and all Paris belongs to me and I belong to this notebook and this pencil.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
Our nada who art in nada, nada be thy name thy kingdom nada thy will be nada in nada as it is in nada. Give us this nada our daily nada and nada us our nada as we nada our nadas and nada us not into nada but deliver us from nada pues nada. Hail nothing full of nothing, nothing is with thee.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
If every one said orders were impossible to carry out when they were received where would you be? Where would we all be if you just said, Impossible, when orders came?
Ernest Hemingway
Image
Now he was proving it again. Each time was a new time and he never thought about the past when he was doing it.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
A person with increasing knowledge and sensory education may derive infinite enjoyment from wine.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
But you always fall for somebody else and then it's all right. Fall for them but don't let them ruin you.
