Allegiance Quote by Ernest Hemingway
“A writer is like a gypsy. He owes no allegiance to any government. If he is a good writer he will never like any government he lives under. His hand should be against it and its hand will always be against him.”
![“I’ve often envied those writers in the Western world who can peacefully practice their craft and earn a living thereby… What [the authorities here] cannot stand is that a writer should give voice to the voiceless or organize them for action. In short, they do not want literature on the streets!” quote by KEN SARO WIWA written to PEN Center USA from his prison cell in Nigeria shortly before his execution](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/565/ken-saro-wiwa-written-to-pen-c_life_i-ve-often-envied-those-writers-in-the-w_666848.jpg)
