Gil Pender I would like you to read my novel and get your opinion.
Ernest Hemingway I hate it.
Gil Pender You haven't even read it yet.
Ernest Hemingway If it's bad, I'll hate it. If it's good, then I'll be envious and hate it even more. You don't want the opinion of another writer.

Ernest Hemingway I believe that love that is true and real creates a respite from death. All cowardice comes from not loving or not loving well, which is the same thing and when the man that is brave and true looks death squarely in the face, like some rhino hunters I know, or Belmonte who is truly brave, it is because they love with sufficient passion to push death out of their minds, until it returns, as it does, to all men. And then you must make really good love again... Think about it.

Helen It's a shame you didn't come with us to the movies last night. We saw a wonderfully funny American film.
Inez Who was in it?
Helen Oh, I don't know. I forget the name.
Gil Pender Wonderful, but forgettable. That sounds like a picture I've seen. I probably wrote it!
Helen Well, I know it was moronic and infantile and utterly lacking in any wit and believability, but John and I laughed in spite of ourselves.

Gil Pender I was trying to escape my present the same way you’re trying to escape yours. To a golden age… Look at these guys, to them their golden age was the Renaissance! They’d trade Belle Époque to be painting alongside Michelangelo. And those guys probably imagined life was a lot better when Kubla Khan was around!
