Ernest Hemingway vs. Oscar Wilde
Side-by-side comparison of two thinkers
Ernest Hemingway
1899 – 1961
Ernest Miller Hemingway was an American novelist, short-story writer and journalist. Known for an economical, understated style that influenced later 20th-century writers, he has been romanticized for his adventurous lifestyle and outspoken, blunt public image. Some of his seven novels, six short-story collections and two non-fiction works have become classics of American literature, and he was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature.
"The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too."
Oscar Wilde
1854 – 1900
Oscar Wilde (1854) was an Irish poet and playwright known for his wit, his plays, and his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray.
"Never love anyone who treats you like you're ordinary."
