More From Ernest Hemingway

I think we all mistake certain things for happiness. i think we mistake comfort for happiness and we mistake pleasure for happiness, and entertainment for happiness, when really these are just things we use as proxies for our happiness. we use them to cheer us up or try and achieve brief happiness, when really happiness is something much more profound and long lasting and exists within us.

Stupid Intelligent Differences
Intelligent, heartfelt stories that tell a whole new set of truths about growing up american. julie orringer writes with virtuosity and depth about the fears, cruelties, and humiliations of childhood, but then does that rarest, and more difficult, thing: writes equally beautifully about the moments of victory and transcendence.
