Ernest Hemingway
The best way to become a writer is to go off and write.

Ernest Hemingway
Man is not made for defeat.
Ernest Hemingway
In war, one cannot say what one feels.
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
There is seven-eights of it under water for every part that shows. Anything you know you can eliminate and it only strengthens your iceberg. It is the part that doesn't show. If a writer omits something because he does not know it then there is a hole in the story.
Ernest Hemingway
Never confuse motions with action.
Ernest Hemingway
Wars are caused by undefended wealth.
Ernest Hemingway
As a writer, you should not judge, you should understand.
Ernest Hemingway
Never confuse movement with action.
