If men will not act for thems...

If men will not act for themselves, what will they do when the benefit of their effort is for all?

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

If we cannot be powerful and happy and prey on others, we invent conscience and prey on ourselves.

Talent does things tolerably well; genius does then intolerably better

Time is an illusion-to orators.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Young women with ambitions sh...

Young women with ambitions should be very crafty and cautious, lest mayhap they be caught in the soft, silken mesh of a happy marriage, and go down to oblivion, dead to the world.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

I have no perfect panacea for...

I have no perfect panacea for human ills. And even if I had I would not attempt to present a system of philosophy between the soup and fish.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Seeing with better eyes We ca...

Seeing with better eyes We can recognize that the offender is a valuable human being who struggles with the same needs, pressures, and confusions that we struggle with. We will recognize that the incident really may not have been about us in the first place. Instead it was about the wrongdoer's misguided attempt to meet his or her own needs. As we regard offenders from this point of view (regardless of whether they repent and regardless of what they have done or suffered), we will be in a position to forgive them.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

You had better be a round peg...

You had better be a round peg in a square hole than a square peg in a square hole. The latter is in for life, while the first is only an indeterminate sentence.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Freedom is the supreme good; ...

Freedom is the supreme good; freedom from self imposed limitation.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Do not go out of your way to ...

Do not go out of your way to do good whenever it comes your way. Men who make a business of doing good to others are apt to hate others in the same occupation. Simply be filled with the thought of good, and it will radiate you do not have to bother about it, any more than you need trouble about your digestion.

The path of civilization is paved with tin cans.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Some one has said that we are...

Some one has said that we are moving so fast that when plans are being made to perform some great feat, these plans are broken into by a youth who enters and says, “I have done it."

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Knowledge is the distilled essence of our institutions, corroborated by experience.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Why not be a top-notcher? A top-notcher is simply an individual who works for the institution of which he is a part, not against it.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

When you grow suspicious of a person and begin a system of espionage upon him, your punishment will be that you will find your suspicions true.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Tragedy and comedy are simply...

Tragedy and comedy are simply questions of value; a little misfit in life makes us laugh; a great one is tragedy and cause for expression of grief.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Human service is the highest form of self-interest for the person who serves.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Your enemy is one who misunde...

Your enemy is one who misunderstands you; why should you not rise above the fog and see his error and respect him for the good qualities you find in him?

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

Half the failures in life arise from pulling in one's horse as he is leaping.

Happiness is a habit. Cultivate it.

Elbert Hubbard 655 quotes

The great Big Black Things th...

The great Big Black Things that have loomed against the horizon of my life, threatening to devour me, simply loomed and nothing more. The things that have really made me miss my train have always been sweet, soft, pretty, pleasant things of which I was not in the least afraid.
