Ernest Hemingway
Never mistake motive for action.
Ernest Hemingway
It is very bad for (an artist) to talk about how he (creates). It is not the (artist's) province to explain or to run guided tours through the more difficult country of his work. It's none of their business that you had to learn. Let them think you were born that way.
Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway
It's harder to write in the third person but the advantage is you move around better.
Ernest Hemingway
Everyone has his own conscience, and there should be no rules about how a conscience should function.
Ernest Hemingway
No that doesn't interest me.' 'That's because you never read a book about it.
Ernest Hemingway
Would you please please please please please please please stop talking?
Ernest Hemingway
Critics are men who watch a battle from a high place then come down and shoot the survivors.
Ernest Hemingway
But perhaps he had enough animal strength and detached intelligence that he could make another start.
Ernest Hemingway
The best way to become a writer is to go off and write.
Ernest Hemingway
As a writer, you should not judge, you should understand.
Ernest Hemingway
