"Dying was nothing and he had no picture……" — Ernest Hemingway

Dying was nothing and he had no picture of it nor fear… - Ernest Hemingway
"Dying was nothing and he had no picture of it nor fear of it in his mind. But living was a field of grain blowing in the wind on the side of a hill. Living was a hawk in the sky. Living was an earthen jar of water in the dust of the threshing with the grain flailed out and the chaff blowing. Living was a horse between your legs and a carbine under one leg and a hill and a valley and a stream with trees along it and the far side of the valley and the hills beyond."

Ernest Hemingway
