There can be no compromise on ...

There can be no compromise on the right of personal security; there can be no compromise on securing of human rights.

I've never thought my speeches were too long; I've rather enjoyed them.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

Surely anyone who has ever bee...

Surely anyone who has ever been elected to public office understands that one commodity above all others, namely the trust and confidence of the people, is fundamental in maintaining a free and open political system.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

Our opposition will never unde...

Our opposition will never understand the Democratic Party. Our Party is--to the unpracticed eyes of the old Republican Tories--a mysterious contraption that usually seems to be moving in a thousand directions. What they don't know is what hurts them. For all that movement in the Democratic Party is caused by the internal combustion of creative ferment, of ideas, of people vigorously committed to the proposition that change and social progress are not only to be desired; they are necessities of twentieth-century America

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

If today there is a proper Ame...

If today there is a proper American 'sphere of influence' it is this fragile sphere called earth upon which all men live and share a common fate--a sphere where our influence must be for peace and justice.

Until racial justice and freedom is a reality in this land, our union will remain profoundly imperfect.

It is always a risk to speak to the press: they are likely to report what you say.

The time has arrived in America for the Democratic Party to get out of the shadows of states rights and walk forthrightly into the bright sunshine of human rights

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

And it is to these rights - the right of law and order, the right of life, the right of liberty, the right of a job, the right of a home in a decent neighborhood, and the right to an education - it is to these rights that I pledge my life and whatever capacity and ability I have.

It is better to gain a foot than to stand still, even when you seek to gain a mile.

In life it isn't what you've lost, it's what you've got left that counts

My favorite sandwich is peanut butter, baloney, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and mayonnaise on toasted bread with catsup on the side.

I had no money to buy books, so between classes and work, I haunted the library. I even tutored in French with a sliding scale of payment: twenty dollars for an A, fifteen for a B, ten for a C, five for a D.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

I wish to suggest that ample opportunity does exist for dissent, for protest, and for nonconformity. But I must also say that the right to be heard does not automatically include the right to be taken seriously.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

Much of our American progress ...

Much of our American progress has been the product of the individual who had an idea; pursued it; fashioned it; tenaciously clung to it against all odds; and then produced it, sold it, and profited from it.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

The right of citizens to bear ...

The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard against the tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

Peace of mind is another way of saying that you've learned how to love, that you have come to appreciate the importance of giving love in order to be worthy of receiving it.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

If I believe in something, I w...

If I believe in something, I will fight for it with all I have. But I do not demand all or nothing. I would rather get something than nothing. Professional liberals want the fiery debate. They glory in defeat. The hardest job for a politician today is to have the courage to be a moderate. It's easy to take an extreme position.

Hubert Humphrey 152 quotes

Before people will do anything...

Before people will do anything, they have got to eat. And if you are really looking for a way for people to lean on you and to be dependent on you, in terms of their cooperation with you, it seems to me that food dependence would be terrific.
