“You Can Be Sure…”

“Never, ever forget that nothing in this life is free. Life demands payment in some form for your “right” to express yourself, to condemn and abuse the evil surrounding us. Expect to pay… it will come for you, they will come for you, regardless. Knowing that, give them Hell itself every chance you can. Expect no mercy, and give none. That’s how life works. Be ready to pay for what you do, or be a coward, pretend you don’t see, don’t know, and cry bitter tears over how terrible things are, over how you let them become.”
– “For Whom the Bell Tolls”

“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.”
– “A Farewell to Arms”

“Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”
– “The Old Man and the Sea”

– Ernest Hemingway
