This book is an anthology of 161 quotes from Ernest Hemingway and 71 selected facts about Ernest Hemingway.
Ernest Hemingway proposed the following epitaph for his tombstone: "Pardon me for not getting up."
Hemingway’s maternal grandparents were from England.
Hemingway often drank with James Joyce in Paris.
In 1948, in Venice, Hemingway fell in love with the then 19-year-old Adriana Ivancich. The love affair inspired the novel Across the River and Into the Trees.
Hemingway preferred to work standing up, spending hours and hours at a time on his feet, moving only to shift his weight from one leg to the other.
“A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”
“Fish," he said softly, aloud, "I'll stay with you until I am dead.”
“Never sit a table when you can stand at the bar.”
“Show the readers everything, tell them nothing.”
“Work every day. No matter what has happened the day or night before, get up and bite on the nail.”
