"It's a town you come to for..." - Quote by Ernest Hemingway

“I wonder what your idea of heaven would be — A beautiful vacuum filled with wealthy monogamists. All powerful and members of the best families all drinking themselves to death. And hell would probably an ugly vacuum full of poor polygamists unable to obtain booze or with chronic stomach disorders that they called secret sorrows.”

“The good parts of a book may be only something a writer is lucky enough to overhear or it may be the wreck of his whole damn life - and one is as good as another.”

“I wake up in the morning and my mind starts making sentences, and I have to get rid of them fast - talk them or write them down.”

“So far as I am able to judge, nothing has been left undone, either by man or nature, to make India the most extraordinary country that the sun visits on his rounds. Nothing seems to have been forgotten, nothing overlooked.”

“Travelers must be content.”

“Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.”

“Some men are like ballads, that are in everyone's mouth a little while.”

“Every fair from fair sometime declines”

“Life is a campaign, a brief staying in a strange region.”
