More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
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
I write description in longhand because that's hardest for me and you're closer to the paper when you work by hand, but I use the typewriter for dialogue because people speak like a typewriter works.
Ernest Hemingway
Never confuse motions with action.
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
(World War I) was the most colossal, murderous, mismanaged butchery that has ever taken place on earth. Any writer who said otherwise lied, So the writers either wrote propaganda, shut up, or fought.
Ernest Hemingway
Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife underhand into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all the furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it.
Ernest Hemingway
If a writer stops observing, he is finished.
Ernest Hemingway
Experiencing differences is crucial to the human condition. Especially when that difference is over the head, blower powder.
Ernest Hemingway
If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them.
Ernest Hemingway
Let him think is I am more man than I am and I will be so.
Ernest Hemingway
The only place where you could see life and death, i. e., violent death now that the wars were over, was in the bull ring and I wanted very much to go to Spain where I could study it. I was trying to learn to write, commencing with the simplest things, and one of the simplest things of all and the most fundamental is violent death.
Ernest Hemingway
There are worse places to be than on your own.
Ernest Hemingway
Don't do what you sincerely don't want to do. Never confuse movement with action.
Ernest Hemingway
I am an old man who will live until I die, Anselmo said.
Ernest Hemingway
Until you're grown-up they send you to reform school. After you're grown-up they send you to the penitentiary.
Ernest Hemingway
My working habits are simple: long periods of thinking, short periods of writing.
Ernest Hemingway
The old man looked at him with his sun-burned, confident loving eyes.
Ernest Hemingway
Today is only one day in all the days that will ever be.
Ernest Hemingway
Hail nothing full of nothing, nothing is with thee.
Ernest Hemingway
You should only read what is truly good or what is frankly bad.
Ernest Hemingway
