Ernest Hemingway
Perhaps wars weren't won anymore. Maybe they went on forever. Maybe it was another Hundred Years' War.
Ernest Hemingway
Love is infinitely more endurable than hate.
Ernest Hemingway
I decided that I would write one story about each thing that I knew about.
Ernest Hemingway
It is silly not to hope, besides I believe it is a sin. The Old Man and the Sea
Ernest Hemingway
The cat has complete emotional honesty - an attribute not often found in humans.
Ernest Hemingway
Writing is the clumsy attempt to find symbols for wordlessness.
Ernest Hemingway
The bulls are my best friends. I translated to Brett. You kill your friends? she asked. Always, he said in English, and laughed. So they don't kill me.
Ernest Hemingway
