The World Breaks Everyone

“The world breaks

everyone and afterward

many are strong at the broken places.   

But those that will not break

it kills.  It kills the very

good and the very

gentle and the very

brave impartially.  If you

are none of these you

can be sure that it will

kill you too, but there

will be no special

hurry.”

~Ernest Hemingway (?)
