The complete short stories of Ernest Hemingway
Ernest Hemingway
the Finca Vigia Edition
3 preface. In going where you have to go, and doing what you have to do, and seeing what you have to see, you dull and blunt the instrument you write with. But I would rather have it bent and dull and know I had to put it on the grindstone again and hammer it into shape and put a whetstone to it, and know I had something to write about, than to have it bright and shinning and nothing to say, or smooth and well-oiled in the closet, but unused. Now it is time to get to the grindstone again, I would like to live long enough to write three more novels and twenty five more stories. I know some pretty good ones.
29 He loved Madrid, which was still an unbelievable place, and he loved his work which, done under bright lights, with clean linen, the wearing of evening cloths, and abundant food in the kitchen, seemed romantically beautiful.
50 At the hotel in Triberg the proprietor had a fine season. It was very pleasant and we were all great friends. The next year came the inflation and the money he had made the year before was not enough to buy supplies to open the hotel and he hanged himself.
420 Pedro Chicote was the proprietor and he had one of those personalities that make a place. He was a great bartender and he was always pleasant, always cheerful, and he had a lot of zest. Now zest is a rare enough thing and few people have it for long. It should not be confused with showmanship either. (...) He was also modest, simple and friendly.
438 He called him the Spanish Lenin and then the poor man tried to live up to it and somebody let him look through a pair of field glasses and he thought he was Clausewitz.
