Top 5 quotes from Ernest Hemingway
"There is no friend as loyal as a book."
"There are events which are so great that if a writer has participated in them his obligation is to write truly rather than assume the presumption of altering them with invention."
"Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know."
"Writing, at its best, is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness, but I doubt if they improve his writing. He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates. For he does his work alone and if he is a good enough writer he must face eternity, or the lack of it, each day."
"I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?"

"Sex and creativity are often seen by dictators as subversive activities."
"As far as I am concerned now, I have no enemies in the press whatsoever."
"Everything in the world may be endured except continued prosperity."
