“Well, Fitz, I looked all through that bible, it was in very fine print and stumbling on that great book Ecclesiastics, read it aloud to all who would listen. Soon I was alone and began cursing the bloody bible because there were no titles in it -- although I found the source of practically every good title you ever heard of. But the boys, principally Kipling, had been there before me and swiped all the good ones so I called the book Men Without Women hoping it would have a large sale among the fairies and old Vassar Girls.”
Ernest Hemingway
“Before you "sign", read the "fine"”

“Michael and I, to this day, stumble into things, ... We wrote a book on Elvis Presley together in the 1980s that became New York Times and London Times best-sellers. It was released on the 10th anniversary of Elvis' death. Everyone said 'How savvy the Sterns are.' Do you think we knew the significance of the date of release for the book when we were writing it? Not even.”
Michael Stern

“We can throw stones, complain about them, stumble on them, climb over them, or build with them”
