Ernest Hemingway Quotes:
Ocupation: Author
Life: July 21, 1899 - July 2, 1961
Birthday: July 21
Death: July 2
There are some things which cannot be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, must be paid heavily for their acquiring. They are the very simplest things and because it takes a man's life to know them the little that each man gets from life is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave.
