Happy Labor Day weekend, everyone! Hope you are enjoying yourselves, having fun and relaxing. Heard an Ernest Hemingway quote over the weekend and decided to check out his quotes and bring some to the Sandbox. ~Jane
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Today is only one day in all the days that will ever be. But what will happen
in all the other days that ever come can depend on what you do today. "
"But man is not made for defeat.
A man can be destroyed but not defeated."
"The world breaks everyone, and afterward,
many are strong at the broken places."
"There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man;
true nobility is being superior to your former self."
"The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much,
and forgetting that you are special too."
"Every man's life ends the same way.
It's only the detail of how he lived and how he died
that distinguish one man from another."
"Let him think that I am more man than I am and I will be so."
"We are all apprentices in a craft where no one ever becomes a master."
"There isn't always an explanation for everything."
"You ought to dream.
All our biggest businessmen have been dreamers."

I always enjoy reading your selection of quotes.
Have a very special Labor Day holiday.

Hi Jane,
I really like all the quotes but think this is my favorite:
"There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self."
