#Whykeepblogging The panel is saying I'd tweet, as if I've passed. Yes, I tweet. Can't speak for Faulkner.

All right. Have it your own way. Road to hell paved with unbought stuffed dogs. Not my fault.

[Ernest Hemingway @ehemingway]

Having books published is very destructive to writing. It is even worse than making love too much.

I still need more healthy rest in order to work at my best. My health is the main capital I have and I want to administer it intelligently.

[Ernest Hemingway @ehemingway]

All my life I've looked at words as though I were seeing them for the first time.

[Ernest Hemingway @ehemingway]

That is what we are supposed to do when we are at our best — make it all up — but make it up so truly that later it will happen that way.

[Ernest Hemingway @ehemingway]

I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive.

[Ernest Hemingway @ehemingway]

It's none of their business that you have to learn how to write. Let them think you were born that way.

[Ernest Hemingway @ehemingway]

I've been in love (truly) with five women, the Spanish Republic and the 4th Infantry Division.

This morning I walked down the Boulevard to the Rue Soufflot for coffee and brioche. It was a fine morning.

[Ernest Hemingway @ehemingway]

Anyway, we went downstairs to the bar and had a whiskey and soda.
