Ernest Hemingway
War is no longer made by simply analyzed economic forces if it ever was.

Ernest Hemingway
Use short sentences. Use short first paragraphs. Use vigorous English. Be positive, not negative.

Ernest Hemingway
Let him think is I am more man than I am and I will be so.
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.
