Elbert Hubbard
The cure for grief is motion.
Elbert Hubbard
Orthodoxy is a corpse that doesn't know it's dead.
Elbert Hubbard
Dogma is a lie reiterated and authoritatively injected into the mind of one or more persons who believe that they believe what someone else believes.
Elbert Hubbard
To supply a thought is mental massage but to evolve a thought of your own is an achievement. Thinking is a brain exercise and no faculty grows save as it is exercised.
Elbert Hubbard
If you want work well done, select a busy man - the other kind has no time.
Elbert Hubbard
Gossip is only the lack of a worthy memory.
Elbert Hubbard
When trouble comes, wise men take to their work weak men take to the woods.
Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard
It is not deeds or acts that last: it is the written record of those deeds and acts.
Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard
Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.
Elbert Hubbard
Life is a checkerboard, and the player opposite you is time. If you hesitate before moving, or neglect to move promptly, your men will be wiped off the board by time. You are playing against a partner who will not tolerate indecision!
Elbert Hubbard
If we cannot be powerful and happy and prey on others, we invent conscience and prey on ourselves.
Elbert Hubbard
God looked upon His work and saw that it was good. That is where the clergy take issue with him.
Elbert Hubbard
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
Dreams can come true, but there is a secret. They're realized through the magic of persistence, determination, commitment, passion, practice, focus and hard work. They happen a step at a time, manifested over years, not weeks.
Elbert Hubbard
We are not punished for our sins, but by them.
Elbert Hubbard
The weaknesses of the many make the leader possible.
Elbert Hubbard
What people need and what they want may be very different.
Elbert Hubbard
