I am not a Hemingway aficionado.

Hemingway never grew out of adolescence. His scope and depth stayed shallow because he had no idea what women are for.

My whole thing was, as much as I was inspired by what my parents do, and growing up on film sets, watching that made me really want to do that. I am my own person, and I think that the only thing with the Hemingway name is that it has gotten me in the door.

I'm out of the terse Hemingway school.

I've never felt influenced by Ernest Hemingway though I suppose there is something inevitable there.

I'm the Ernest Hemingway of 140 characters.

The people who go the craziest when they hear the name 'Hemingway' are my English teachers!

I'm probably better known for boxing with Hemingway than for anything I've written.

I really, honest to God, didn't know what to read until I was out of college and living in Boston, and someone said, 'Well, why don't you read Hemingway?' And I thought, 'OK. I guess I'll try this Hemingway fellow.'

From Ernest Hemingway's stories, I learned to listen within my stories for what went unsaid by my characters.
