Old man Quote by Ernest Hemingway
![“Then there is the other secret. There isn't any symbolysm [sic]. The sea is the sea. The old man is an old man. The boy is a boy and the fish is a fish. The shark are all sharks no better and no worse. All the symbolism that people say is shit. What goes beyond is what you see beyond when you know.” quote by Ernest Hemingway](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/33d/ernest-hemingway-83_old-man_then-there-is-the-other-secret-there-isn_2113368.jpg)
