More quotes by 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 can't get away from yourself by moving from one place to another.
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
I never knew of a morning in Africa when I woke that I was not happy.
Ernest Hemingway
Try and write straight English never using slang except in dialogue and then only when unavoidable. Because all slang goes sour in a short time. I only use swear words, for example, that have lasted at least a thousand years for fear of getting stuff that will be simply timely and then go sour.
Ernest Hemingway
At night, never go to bed without knowing what you'll write tomorrow.
Ernest Hemingway
For a war to be just three conditions are necessary - public authority, just cause, right motive.
Ernest Hemingway
My big fish must be somewhere.
Ernest Hemingway
In the early morning on the lake sitting in the stern of the boat with his father rowing, he felt quite sure that he would never die.
Ernest Hemingway
Today is only one day in all the days that will ever be. But what will happen in all the other days that ever come can depend on what you do today. It's been that way all this year. It's been that way so many times. All of war is that way.
Ernest Hemingway
We ate well and cheaply and drank well and cheaply and slept well and warm together and loved each other.
Ernest Hemingway
We think. We are not peasants. We are mechanics. But even the peasants know better than to believe in a war. Everybody hates war. There is a class that control a country that is stupid and down not realise anything and never can. That is why we have this war. Also they make money out of it.
Ernest Hemingway
There are two kinds of stories, the ones you live and the ones you make up. And nobody knows the difference, and I don't ever tell which is which.
Ernest Hemingway
The writer's job is not to judge, but to seek to understand.
Ernest Hemingway
The game of golf would lose a great deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green.
Ernest Hemingway
The telephone and visitors are the work destroyers.
Ernest Hemingway
Though there is one part of writing that is solid and you do it no harm by talking about it, the other is fragile, and if you talk about it, the structure cracks and you have nothing.
Ernest Hemingway
I don't want to be your friend, baby. I am your friend.
Ernest Hemingway
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
I decided to stop drinking with creeps. I decided to drink only with friends. I've lost 30 pounds.
