Hemingway is terribly limited. His technique is good for short stories, for people who meet once in a bar very late at night, but do not enter into relations. But not for the novel.
W. H. Auden
Image
Hemingway shot himself. I don't like a man that takes the short way home.
William Faulkner
Image
Hemingway said: 'It don't come anymore.' So where did it go?
William S. Burroughs
Image
Hemingway hated me. I sold 200 million books, and he didn't. Of course most of mine sold for 25 cents, but still... you look at all this stuff with a grain of salt.
Mickey Spillane
Image
Hemingway is great in that alone of living writers he has saturated his work with the memory of physical pleasure, with sunshine and salt water, with food, wine and making love and the remorse which is the shadow of that sun.
Cyril Connolly
Image
Hemingway is a baby when he turns up in Paris, but he's an ambitious baby. And he has the talent. And he's there to stage his breakthrough. So many of the expats who were there at that time were there to do precisely that. It was an ambition-fueled town.

Hemingway was very sparse in his writing. Kris Kristofferson is like that. He can take four words and say it all.
Todd Snider
Image
Hemingway seems to be in a funny position. People nowadays can't identify with him closely as a member of their own generation, and he isn't yet historical.
Leslie Fiedler
Image
Hemingway was a prisoner of his style. No one can talk like the characters in Hemingway except the characters in Hemingway. His style in the wildest sense finally killed him.
William S. Burroughs
Image
Hemingway never grew out of adolescence. His scope and depth stayed shallow because he had no idea what women are for.
Rex Stout
Image
Hemingway describes literary New York as a bottle full of tapeworms trying to feed on each other.
John Updike
Image
Thus Mr. Lawrence, Mr. Douglas and Mr. Joyce partly spoil their books for women readers by their display of self-conscious virility and Mr. Hemingway, but much less violently, follows suit.
Virginia Woolf
Image
Gertrude Stein really thought of Hemingway as frail. He almost married Stein.
Leslie Fiedler
Image
Once, in an interview with 'V' magazine, I said that I preferred Fitzgerald to Hemingway. I think that Hemingway is an amazing writer, but by being related to him, I had it in my head that I had to like him.
Dree Hemingway
Image
It was like hiking into a Hemingway story everything was sepia-toned and bristling with subtext.

'The Sun Also Rises' by Ernest Hemingway is my favorite book. You feel manly reading it.
Elizabeth Olsen
Image
I'd say Ernest Hemingway would be a blast to get drunk with.
William Beckett
Image
I am not a Hemingway aficionado.
Margaux Hemingway
Image
For her everything was red, orange, gold-red from the sun on the closed eyes, and it all was that color, all of it, the filling, the possessing, the having, all of that color, all in a blindness of that color. - Ernest Hemingway.

From the time I read my first Hemingway work, The Sun Also Rises, as a student at Soldan High School in St. Louis, I was struck with an affliction common to my generation: Hemingway Awe.
A. E. Hotchner
Image
Such is the content of the mental life of the Hemingway hero and the good guy in general. Every day he gets beaten into a servile pulp by his own mechanical reflexes, which are constantly busy registering and reacting to the violent stimuli which his big, noisy, kinesthetic environment has provided for his unreflective reception.
Marshall McLuhan
Image
As to Hemingway, I read him for the first time in the early 'forties, something about bells, balls and bulls, and loathed it.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
Each day was a challenge of enjoyment, and he [Hemingway] would plan it out as a field general plans a campign.
A. E. Hotchner
Image
Ernest Hemingway called Jospehine the most sensational woman anyone ever saw. I think all women deserve to be this sensational looking!
