More quotes by 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

Ernest Hemingway
He could beat anything, he thought, because no thing could hurt him if he did not care.
Ernest Hemingway
He did not say that because he knew that if you said a good thing it might not happen.
Ernest Hemingway
The echoes of beauty you've seen transpire, Resound through dying coals of a campfire.
Ernest Hemingway
Practice any faith you wish. Got a ball field up the island where you can practice. I'll give the Deity a fast one high and inside if he crowds the plate.
Ernest Hemingway
I don’t. I don’t want anybody else to touch you. I’m silly. I get furious if they touch you.
Ernest Hemingway
When you start to live outside yourself, it's all dangerous.
Ernest Hemingway
In the fall the war was always there but we did not go to it any more.
Ernest Hemingway
Love is infinitely more endurable than hate.
