Ernest Hemingway
At night, never go to bed without knowing what you'll write tomorrow.
Ernest Hemingway
All good books have one thing in common - they are truer than if they had really happened.
Ernest Hemingway
We need more true mystery in our lives Hem- he said. The completely unambitious writer and the really good unpublished poem are the things we lack most. There is of course the problem of sustenance
Ernest Hemingway
Luck is a thing that comes in many forms and who can recognize her?
Ernest Hemingway
I am an old man who will live until I die, Anselmo said.
Ernest Hemingway
When you have a child, the world has a hostage.

Never mistake motive for action.
Ernest Hemingway
And how much better to die in all the happy period of undisillusioned youth, to go out in a blaze of light, than to have your body worn out and old and illusions shattered.
Ernest Hemingway
