The fun of talk is to explore, but much of it and all that is irresponsible should not be written. Once written you have to stand by it. You may have said it to see whether you believed it or not.

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
And you'll always love me won't you? Yes And the rain won't make any difference? No
Ernest Hemingway
Write the best story that you can and write it as straight as you can.
Ernest Hemingway
How simple the writing of literature would be if it were only necessary to write in another way what has been well written. It is because we have had such great writers in the past that a writer is driven far out past where he can go, out to where no one can help him.
Ernest Hemingway
Though there is one part of writing that is solid and you do it no harm by talking about it, the other is fragile, and if you talk about it, the structure cracks and you have nothing.
Ernest Hemingway
We're stronger in the places that we've been broken.
Ernest Hemingway
The whiskey warmed his tongue and the back of his throat, but it did not change his ideas any, and suddenly, looking at himself in the mirror behind the bar, he knew that drinking was never going to do any good to him now. Whatever he had now he had, and it was from now on, and if he drank himself unconscious when he woke up it would be there.
Ernest Hemingway
Remember everything is right until it's wrong. You'll know when it's wrong.
Ernest Hemingway
If a writer stops observing he is finished. Experience is communicated by small details intimately observed.
Ernest Hemingway
God knows, people who are paid to have attitudes toward things, professional critics, make me sick camp-following eunuchs of literature.
Ernest Hemingway
Fascism is a lie told by bullies.
Ernest Hemingway
I still need more healthy rest in order to work at my best. My health is the main capital I have and I want to administer it intelligently.
Ernest Hemingway
Experiencing differences is crucial to the human condition. Especially when that difference is over the head, blower powder.
Ernest Hemingway
The coward dies a thousand deaths, the brave but one'.... (The man who first said that) was probably a coward.... He knew a great deal about cowards but nothing about the brave. The brave dies perhaps two thousand deaths if he's intelligent. He simply doesn't mention them.
Ernest Hemingway
Just as, with the radio, there are certain things that you become fond of,and you welcome them and resent the new things
Ernest Hemingway
Thou wilt go now, rabbit. But I go with thee. As long as there is one of us there is both of us.
Ernest Hemingway
Fear of death increases in exact proportion to increase in wealth.
Ernest Hemingway
Wine is the most civilized thing in the world.
Ernest Hemingway
I would take anything I love and throw it off the highest cliff you ever saw and not wait to hear it bounce.
Ernest Hemingway
It was like certain dinners I remember from the war. There was much wine, an ignored tension, and a feeling of things coming that you could not prevent happening. Under the wine I lost the disgusted feeling and was happy. It seemed they were all such nice people.
Ernest Hemingway
