The University of Florida's Ernest Hemingway Home Page

Quotes from Ernest Hemingway and his work.

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
new that each man gets from life is
very costly and the only heritage he
has to leave.

-- Ernest Hemingway

James Kavanaugh, an American Writer and Poet.
This page has his collected works,
poem of the week and ordering information

A Friendship Like Ours A friendship like ours is without pretense or barriers,
Where no word is without consequence, no pain without compassion,
When time means nothing and distance is as insignificant as astral travel,
Where a single word can sometimes say all there is to say,
And love grows organically each passing day,
Where misunderstandings are impossible and words have no currency,
Where a chance meeting is enough to last a lifetime,
And heart speaks to heart in a single contact.

I have known good and gentle men and women for a lifetime,
Have been bound to them by blood and debt and every circumstance,
Even lashed together by work and space and passionate concern,
Yet few of these could invade the privacy of my inner being
No matter their power or brilliance, beauty or wealth.
But you were destined to reside there, my friend,
by an eternal edict,
Because even before we met, You were already there! -James Kavanaugh
