More quotes by Elbert Hubbard
Woman's inaptitude for reasoning has not prevented her from arriving at truth nor has man's ability to reason prevented him from floundering in absurdity.
Elbert Hubbard
It is not to be wondered that men have worshiped the ocean, for in his depths they have seen mirrored the image of Eternity of Infinity. Here they have seen the symbol of God's great plan of oneness with His creatures, for the sea is the union of all infinite particles, and it takes the whole to make the one.
Elbert Hubbard
Man, like Deity, creates in his own image.
Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard
Nothing is permanent but change.
Elbert Hubbard
The brain is a commodity used to fertilize ideas.
Elbert Hubbard
It is not book learning young men need, nor instruction about this and that, but a stiffening of the vertebra which will cause them to be loyal to a trust, to act promptly, concentrate their energies, do a thing.
Elbert Hubbard
I believe the Universe is planned for good.
Elbert Hubbard
A woman will doubt everything you say except it be compliments to herself.
Elbert Hubbard
Gossip is vice enjoyed vicariously
Elbert Hubbard
Freedom is a condition of mind, and the best way to secure it is to breed it.
Elbert Hubbard
