"You make something from things that have happened……" — Ernest Hemingway

"You make something from things that have happened and from things that exist and from all things that you know and all those you cannot know, and you make something through your invention that is truer than anything true and alive, and if you make it well enough, you give it immortality."

Ernest Hemingway
