Ernest Hemingway
“Oh, don't go to hell,” I said. “Stick around. We're just starting lunch.”
Ernest Hemingway, The Sun Also Rises

Ernest Hemingway
“The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.”
Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

Stephen Fry
“A true thing, poorly expressed, is a lie.”
Stephen Fry

Stephen Fry
“Painters, poets and philosophers have seen many things in the myth of Sisyphus. They have seen an image of the absurdity of human life, the futility of effort, the remorseless cruelty of fate, the unconquerable power of gravity. But they have seen too something of mankind’s courage, resilience, fortitude, endurance and self-belief. They see something heroic in our refusal to submit.”
Stephen Fry, Mythos: The Greek Myths Retold

Jane Austen
“I shall ever despise the man who can be gratified by the passion which he never wished to inspire, nor solicited the avowal of.”
Jane Austen, Lady Susan
