No man ever did or can do a great work alone.
Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard
Image
Be patient with the boys - you are dealing with soul-stuff.
Elbert Hubbard
Image
It is a fine thing to have ability, but the ability to discover ability in others is the true test.
Elbert Hubbard
Image
War is the sure result of the existence of armed men. That country which maintains a large standing army will sooner or later have a war. The man who prides himself on fisticuffs is going, some day, to meet a man who considers himself the better man, and they will test the issue.
Elbert Hubbard

Genius is only the power of making continuous efforts.
Elbert Hubbard
