"In one of [[Hemingway]]’s most beautiful passages, he writes: "If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. **The world breaks every one 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." --- **Tags** -- [[quotes]], [[courage]], [[juicy-sentences]], [[character]], [[pragmatism]], [[failure]], [[resilience]], **Source** -- [[202409180128 - B - Courage is Calling]]
