You can write anytime people will leave you alone and not interrupt you.
Ernest Hemingway
Out of all the things you could not have there were some things that you could have and one of those was to know when you were happy and to enjoy all of it while it was there and it was good.
Ernest Hemingway
No one should be alone in their old age, he thought.
Ernest Hemingway
You can write any time people will leave you alone and not interrupt you. Or rather you can if you will be ruthless enough about it. But the best writing is certainly when you are in love.
Ernest Hemingway
You'll lose it, if you talk about it
Ernest Hemingway
Got tight on absinthe last night. Did knife tricks.
