Ernest Hemingway
You see I'm trying in all my stories to get the feeling of the actual life across, not just to depict life, or criticize it, but to actually make it alive.
Ernest Hemingway
Man is not made for defeat.
Ernest Hemingway
No that doesn't interest me.' 'That's because you never read a book about it.
Ernest Hemingway
Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.

He did not say that because he knew that if you said a good thing it might not happen.
Ernest Hemingway
Drinking is a way of ending the day.
Ernest Hemingway
It's a town you come to for a short time.
Ernest Hemingway
