As In No Other Form Of Lute

Ernest Hemingway
As in no other form of lute or combat, the conditions are such; the winner takes nothing, neither his ease, nor his pleasure, nor any notion of glory, nor if he wins far enough, will he find anything within himself.

More From Ernest Hemingway

The winner is always part of the answer. the loser is always part of the problem. the winner always has a program. the loser always has an excuse. the winner says, "let me do it for you." the loser says, "that's not my job." the winner sees an answer for every problem. the loser sees a problem for every answer. the winner sees a green near every sand trap the loser sees two or three sand traps near every green. the winner says, "it may be difficult but it's possible." the loser says, "it might be possible but it's too difficult." be a winner.

I knelt and opened up my lute case. moving the lute aside, i pressed the lid of the secret compartment and twisted it open. i slid threpe's sealed letter inside, where it joined the hollow horn with nina's drawing and a small sack of dried apple i had stowed there. there was nothing special about the dried apple, but in my opinion if you have a secret compartment in your lute case and don't use it to hide things, there is something terribly, terribly wrong with you.

At the still point of the turning world. neither flesh nor fleshless; neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is, but neither arrest nor movement. and do not all it fixity, where past and future are gathered. neither movement from nor towards, neither ascent nor decline. except for the point, the still point, there would be no dance, and there is only the dance.
Past Silence Would Be
If i marry: he must be so tall that when he is on his knees, as one has said he reaches all the way to heaven. his shoulders must be broad enough to bear the burden of a family. his lips must be strong enough to smile, firm enough to say no, and tender enough to kiss. love must be so deep that it takes its stand in christ and so wide that it takes the whole lost world in. he must be active enough to save souls. he must be big enough to be gentle and great enough to be thoughtful. his arms must be strong enough to carry a little child.
Strong Children Kissing
If you ask me how i want to be remembered, it is as a winner. you know what a winner is? a winner is somebody who has given his best effort, who has tried the hardest they possibly can, who has utilized every ounce of energy and strength within them to accomplish something.

Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.

I felt like i was trapped in one of those terrifying nightmares, the one where you have to run, run till your lungs burst, but you can't make your body move fast enough... but this was no dream, and, unlike the nightmare, i wasn't running for my life: i was racing to save something infinitely more precious. my own life meant little to me today.
