More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
Bigotry is an odd thing. To be bigoted you have to be absolutely sure you are right and nothing makes that surety and righteousness like continence. Continence is the foe of heresy.
Ernest Hemingway
How would that premise stand up if he examined it? That was probably why the Communists were always cracking down on Bohemiansism. When you were drunk or when you committed adultery you recognised your own personal fallability of that so mutable substitute for the apostles' creed, the party line. Down with Bohemianism, the sin of Majakowski.
Ernest Hemingway
You are so brave and quiet I forget you are suffering.
Ernest Hemingway
I always rewrite each day up to the point where I stopped. When it is all finished, naturally you go over it. You get another chance to correct and rewrite when someone else types it, and you see it clean in type. The last chance is in the proofs. You're grateful for these different chances.
Ernest Hemingway
Hunger is good discipline.
Ernest Hemingway
I have a rotten habit of picturing the bedroom scenes of my friends.
Ernest Hemingway
Easy writing makes hard reading.
Ernest Hemingway
I would walk along the quais when I had finished work or when I was trying to think something out. It was easier to think if I was walking and doing something or seeing people doing something that they understood.
Ernest Hemingway
I've been in love (truly) with five women, the Spanish Republic and the 4th Infantry Division.
Ernest Hemingway
I love you and I always will and I am sorry. What a useless word.
Ernest Hemingway
Work every day. No matter what has happened the day or night before, get up and bite on the nail.
Ernest Hemingway
Wars are Spinach. Life in general is the tough part. In war all you have to do is not worry and know how to read a map and co-ordinates.
Ernest Hemingway
Wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things of the world that has been brought to the greatest perfection, and it offers a greater range for enjoyment and appreciation than, possibly, any other purely sensory thing.
Ernest Hemingway
Ronda is the place where to go, if you are planning to travel to Spain for a honeymoon or for being with a girlfriend. The whole city and its surroundings are a romantic set. ... Nice promenades, good wine, excellent food, nothing to do.
Ernest Hemingway
Once writing has become your major vice and greatest pleasure only death can stop it. Financial security then is a great help as it keeps you from worrying.
Ernest Hemingway
Paris is so very beautiful that it satisfies something in you that is always hungry in America.
Ernest Hemingway
To have come on all this new world of writing, with time to read in a city like Paris where there was a way of living well and working, no matter how poor you were, was like having a great treasure given to you.
Ernest Hemingway
Everything that's innocent to us is crazy to them.
Ernest Hemingway
At night, never go to bed without knowing what you'll write tomorrow.
Ernest Hemingway
There is a mystery in all great writing and that mystery does not dissect out. It continues and is always valid.
Ernest Hemingway
