More quotes by Ernest Hemingway
What did I know best that I had not written about and Lost? What did I know about truly and care for the most?
Ernest Hemingway
For we have thought the longer thoughts And gone the shorter way. And we have danced to devils' tunes, Shivering home to pray To serve one master in the night, Another in the day.
Ernest Hemingway
I'm tired of everybody. Please forgive me.
Ernest Hemingway
Wars are Spinach. Life in general is the tough part. In war all you have to do is not worry and know how to read a map and co-ordinates.
Ernest Hemingway
I would walk along the quais when I had finished work or when I was trying to think something out. It was easier to think if I was walking and doing something or seeing people doing something that they understood.
Ernest Hemingway
You’ll ache. And you’re going to love it. It will crush you. And you’re still going to love all of it.
Ernest Hemingway
You're not a moron. You're only a case of arrested development.

I would like to take the great DiMaggio fishing, the old man said. They say his father was a fisherman. Maybe he was as poor as we are and would understand.
Ernest Hemingway
The fish is my friend too...I have never seen or heard of such a fish. But I must kill him. I am glad we do not have to try to kill the stars. Imagine if each day a man must try to kill the moon, he thought. The moon runs away. But imagine if a man each day should have to try to kill the sun? We were born lucky he thought
Ernest Hemingway
In the spring mornings I would work early while my wife still slept. The windows were open wide and the cobbles of the street were drying after the rain.
Ernest Hemingway
Until you're grown-up they send you to reform school. After you're grown-up they send you to the penitentiary.
Ernest Hemingway
He did not say that because he knew that if you said a good thing it might not happen.
Ernest Hemingway
The only kind of writing is rewriting.
Ernest Hemingway
Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.
Ernest Hemingway
A person with increasing knowledge and sensory education may derive infinite enjoyment from wine.
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
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
The cat has complete emotional honesty - an attribute not often found in humans.
Ernest Hemingway
Bigotry is an odd thing. To be bigoted you have to be absolutely sure you are right and nothing makes that surety and righteousness like continence. Continence is the foe of heresy.
Ernest Hemingway
