Ernest Hemingway
Never confuse motions with action.
Ernest Hemingway
You are all a lost generation. [with credit to Gertrude Stein]
Ernest Hemingway
When things are going well, I like to have people to share it with. I've been alone in troubled times, and I don't mind that. Some things have to be endured alone. As Hemingway said, the human being is strong in all the broken places.
Ernest Hemingway
The great thing is to last and get your work done and see and hear and learn and understand and write when there is something that you know and not before, and not too damned much after.
