Ernest Hemingway
“Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.”
Ernest Hemingway

Milan Kundera
“People are always shouting they want to create a better future. It's not true. The future is an apathetic void of no interest to anyone. The past is full of life, eager to irritate us, provoke and insult us, tempt us to destroy or repaint it. The only reason people want to be masters of the future is to change the past.”
Milan Kundera

Ernest Hemingway
“Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.”
Ernest Hemingway, The Garden of Eden

Chinua Achebe
“To me, being an intellectual doesn't mean knowing about intellectual issues; it means taking pleasure in them.”
Chinua Achebe

Marcel Proust
“Like many intellectuals, he was incapable of saying a simple thing in a simple way”
Marcel Proust
