There will always be people who say it does not exist because they cannot have it. But I tell you it is true and that you have it and that you are lucky even if you die tomorrow.

Ernest Hemingway

There will always be people who say it does not...

About This Quote

The quote above is something that I have heard a few people say. The thing is, if someone tells you that you have a rare and valuable diamond that you should value it a lot then they are just a liar. If they tell you that love is a rare and valuable diamond then they are telling the truth. These people would probably never admit to having such a thing but their words will make you think or feel differently about them. If someone tells another person that they have such a thing and the other person dies tomorrow, the person who told them said it is true and lucky even if they die tomorrow.
