ERNEST HEMINGWAY
If a writer of prose knows enough of what he is writing about he may omit things that he knows and the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as though the writer had stated them. The dignity of movement of an ice-berg is due to only one-eighth of it being above water. A writer who omits things because he does not know them only makes hollow places in his writing
Ernest Hemingway in Death in the Afternoon
The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.
