Ernest Hemingway
The fools think I am writing algebra but what I am really writing is geometry.
Ernest Hemingway
Anyone who says he wants to be a writer and isn't writing, doesn't.
Ernest Hemingway

Now he would never write the things that he had saved to write until he knew enough to write them well. Well, he would not have to fail at trying to write them either. Maybe you could never write them, and that was why you put them off and delayed the starting. Well he would never know, now.
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
Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry: Worry never fixes anything.
Ernest Hemingway
Never confuse movement with action.
Ernest Hemingway
Why do old men wake so early? Is it to have one longer day?
Ernest Hemingway
And who understands? Not me, because if I did I would forgive it all.
Ernest Hemingway
It is good that we do not have to try to kill the sun or the moon or the stars. It is enough to live on the sea and kill our true brothers.
Ernest Hemingway
Life is pain, so live it up while you can.
Ernest Hemingway
Cowards die a thousand deaths, but the brave only die once.
Ernest Hemingway
We wait always for something that does not come.
Ernest Hemingway
Il faut d'abord durer (First One Must Endure).
Ernest Hemingway
Write hard and clear about what hurts.
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
