Quote by -Ernest Hemingway

Quote by -Ernest Hemingway
"I have tried simply to write the best I can. Sometimes I have good luck and write better than I can."
Quote by -Ernest Hemingway
"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."
Quote by -Ernest Hemingway
"Graduation day is tough for adults. They go to the ceremony as parents. They come home as contemporaries. After twenty-two years of child-raising, they are unemployed."
Quote by -Erma Bombeck
"Never go to your high school reunion pregnant or they will think that is all you have done since you graduated."
Quote by -Erma Bombeck
"I've been caught in parachute pants. And on my high school yearbook, they used the wrong picture. They were supposed to use the picture of me with a nice suit on. They used me with my collar flipped up, in a fuchsia and white striped shirt. I blame Prince and Michael Jackson in the Eighties for that."
