Hombre, there are bodegas open all night long.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
I'm tired of everybody. Please forgive me.
Ernest Hemingway
If every one said orders were impossible to carry out when they were received where would you be? Where would we all be if you just said, Impossible, when orders came?
Ernest Hemingway
There isn't any me. I'm you. Don't make up a separate me.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
There is no night life in Spain. They stay up late but they get up late. That is not night life. That is delaying the day.
Ernest Hemingway
All good books have one thing in common - they are truer than if they had really happened.
Ernest Hemingway

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
Easy writing makes hard reading.
Ernest Hemingway
No horse named Morbid ever won a race.
Ernest Hemingway
Before you quit, you have to try
Ernest Hemingway
Have faith in the Yankees my son. Think of the great DiMaggio.
Ernest Hemingway
The great thing is to last and get your work done and see and hear and learn and understand and write when there is something that you know and not before, and not too damned much after.
Ernest Hemingway
You're not a moron. You're only a case of arrested development.
Ernest Hemingway
