1 The way to make people trustworthy is to trust them – Ernest Hemmingway
The only way one can find out whether they can place their trust upon someone is by taking a leap of faith and giving them a chance. You’ll never discover how deep their loyalty goes unless you test the waters.
2 There is no friend as loyal as a book. – Ernest Hemmingway
Books house stories that take you away from this world, lend an ear without saying anything as you rant about your horrible day and never leave your side. And what’s better than a friend who never abandons you? (Of course, it’s two friends who never abandon you).
3 There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed. – Ernest Hemmingway
Writing is nothing but digging into your deepest emotions and pouring them on a piece of paper. Once you sit down to write, all you do is bleed your thoughts into the sheets.
4 I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I’m awake, you know? – Ernest Hemmingway
Sleep is indeed the only activity providing salvation to many overworked souls out there. As long as you’re awake, you must face the tribulations of everyday life, but once you’re asleep, there’s nothing but silence and contentment.
5 When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen. – Ernest Hemmingway
Good listeners easily make stronger bonds, because most of us just need an ear to aid in our overflow of thoughts. As long as you’re willing to listen, things will always get better.
6 Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime. – Ernest Hemmingway
No matter what you name it, at the end of the day, a war is just a brutal festival of blood and violence. And justifying it doesn’t make you any better than the ones who partake in it.
7 It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end. – Ernest Hemmingway
Everyone has a goal they’re heading towards with full zeal, but the journey they take is just as important, if not more, as their goal, because it is the journey that teaches them the lessons they carry to continuously move forward.
8 The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too – Ernest Hemmingway
Oftentimes, we invest so much of ourselves into other people that we forget that our well-being is equally important. Loving someone doesn’t mean sacrificing oneself for the sake of their contentment.
9 A cat has absolute emotional honesty: human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not. – Ernest Hemmingway
Cats are honest, brutal and completely adorable beings who care about nothing but themselves (they like being menacing so we’re keeping this cat-friendly). They’ll show you just how much they love you but hate your bathtub, unlike humans, who hide their true intentions behind layers and layers of lies.
10 Every man’s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another. – Ernest Hemmingway
All of us are similar in the sense that we’ll vanish into oblivion one day. What differentiates us is the decisions we make along the way and how those decisions influence our actions.
11 As a writer, you should not judge, you should understand. – Ernest Hemmingway
It’s not the job of a writer to judge their subjects, muses or inspiration. Writers are supposed to present storylines without sugar-coating or snipping them, because stories are supposed to be true and raw, not happy.
12 In order to write about life first you must live it. – Ernest Hemmingway
One can only recount about the experiences and nuances that life brings with it once one has gone out and tried new things. One can’t do justice to something unless they’ve experienced it.
13 The first and final thing you have to do in this world is to last it and not be smashed by it. – Ernest Hemmingway
The world may be cruel, but your task is literally to survive it. It’s going to propel you into the wildest of hurricanes, but even then, you must stand firm and get through it.
14 But life isn’t hard to manage when you’ve nothing to lose. – Ernest Hemmingway
You only worry about the future when you have things to protect. Once loss strikes, and there’s nothing that could possibly get worse, you become unhinged. There’s nothing to manage, so there’s no difficulty in doing it.
15 You are so brave and quiet I forget you are suffering. – Ernest Hemmingway
It’s the quietest people, who never voice their discomfort and brave through the darkest of days that are suffering the most. You might not know who they are, but you can always be kind to people in general to make their lives a little less discomforting.
