More From Ernest Hemingway

- "The game of golf would lose a great deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green."
- "They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one’s country. But in modern war, there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason."
