Because Fascism is a lie, it is condemned to literary sterility. And when it is past, it will have no history, except the bloody history of murder.

More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
You've such a lovely temperature.
Ernest Hemingway
I am an old man who will live until I die, Anselmo said.
Ernest Hemingway
It was a pleasant cafe, warm and clean and friendly, and I hung up my old water-proof on the coat rack to dry and put my worn and weathered felt hat on the rack above the bench and ordered a cafe au lait. The waiter brought it and I took out a notebook from the pocket of the coat and a pencil and started to write.
Ernest Hemingway
Writing is something that you can never do as well as it can be done. It is a perpetual challenge and it is more difficult than anything else that I have ever done.
Ernest Hemingway
Everything is your fault if you're any damn good.
Ernest Hemingway
I think you should learn about writing from everybody who has ever written that has anything to teach you
Ernest Hemingway
Never sit a table when you can stand at the bar.
Ernest Hemingway
Before you react, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you criticize, wait. Before you quit, try.
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
A person with increasing knowledge and sensory education may derive infinite enjoyment from wine.
Ernest Hemingway
Now, being in Africa, I was hungry for more of it, the changes of the seasons, the rains with no need to travel, the discomforts that you paid to make it real, the names of the trees, of the small animals, and all the birds, to know the language and have time to be in it and to move slowly.
Ernest Hemingway
There is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never care for anything else thereafter.
Ernest Hemingway
The rain will stop, the night will end, the hurt will fade. Hope is never so lost that it can't be found.
Ernest Hemingway
It is impossible to believe the emotional and spiritual intensity and pure, classic beauty that can be produced by a man, an animal, and a piece of scarlet serge draped over a stick.
Ernest Hemingway
If a writer knows enough about what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to only one ninth of it being above water.
Ernest Hemingway
You're beautiful, like a May fly.
Ernest Hemingway
Do you know how an ugly woman feels? Do you know what it is to be ugly all your life and inside to feel that you are beautiful? It is very rare.
Ernest Hemingway
Drinking is a way of ending the day.
Ernest Hemingway
I did not understand them but they did not have any mystery, and when I understood them they meant nothing to me. I was sorry about this but there was nothing I could do about it.
Ernest Hemingway
He knew he would not be afraid. Even if he ever was afraid he knew that he could do it anyway.
Ernest Hemingway
