Ernest Hemingway

Simplified Meaning:

To write well about life, you need to have real experiences first. Imagine trying to describe what it's like to swim in the ocean without ever seeing or feeling the water. Your description wouldn’t be very rich or accurate because you haven’t actually done it yourself. Similarly, if an author wants to tell a story about love, adventure, or hardship, they need to have felt those things firsthand. This way, their writing will be more vivid, truthful, and relatable. By living through various experiences, an author gains the insights and emotions that make their writing come alive for readers. So, if you want to become a great writer, go out and experience the world; meet different people, try new things, and learn from both the good and the bad times in your life.
