Ernest Hemingway's Iceberg Theory:
"If a writer of prose knows enough about what he is writing about He may omit things that he knows & the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as though the writer had stated them .... The writer who omits things because he does not know them only makes hollow places in his writing."
