 | | | "For a true writer each book should be a new beginning where he tries again for something that is beyond attainment. He should always try for something that has never been done or that others have tried and failed. Then sometimes, with great luck, he will succeed."
- Ernest Hemingway
(1898 - 1961), in his Nobel Prize acceptance speech | | | |
