Top 5 quotes from Ernest Miller Hemingway

"I wish I could write well enough to write about aircraft. Faulkner did it very well in Pylon but you cannot do something someone else has done though you might have done it if they hadn't."
"You lose it if you talk about it."
"I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen."
"Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination. Learning to suspend your imagination and live completely in the very second of the present with no before and no after is the greatest gift a soldier can acquire."
"When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people not characters. A character is a caricature."

"If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things."
"What makes a good follower? The single most important characteristic may well be a willingness to tell the truth. In a world of growing complexity leaders are increasingly dependent on their subordinates for good information, whether the leaders want to hear it or not. Followers who tell the truth and leaders who listen to it are an unbeatable combination."
"Every composer knows the anguish and despair occasioned by forgetting ideas which one has not time to write down."
"Any great work of art revives and readapts time and space, and the measure of its success is the extent to which it makes you an inhabitant of that world -- the extent to which it invites you in and lets you breathe its strange, special air."
"Bill Dickey is learning me his experience."
