More quotes by Elbert Hubbard
Art is not a thing it is a way.
Elbert Hubbard
The great man is not so great as folks think, and the dull man is not quite so stupid as he seems. The difference in our estimates of men lies in the fact that one individual is able to get his goods into the show-window, and the other is not aware that he has any show-window or any goods.
Elbert Hubbard
Blessed is the man who has found someone to do his work.
Elbert Hubbard
Life in abundance comes only through great love.
Elbert Hubbard
I wish to live without hate, whim, jealousy, envy, and fear. I wish to be simple, honest, frank, natural . . to face any obstacle and meet every difficulty unabashed and unafraid.
Elbert Hubbard
The Great Man is a man who lives a long way off.
Elbert Hubbard
Die, v.: To stop sinning suddenly.
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
The man who is so run down that he needs a vacation can never adjust or reform himself in two weeks. What he really needs is to re-transform his life.
Elbert Hubbard
Life consists in molting our illusions. We form creeds today only to throw them away tomorrow. The eagle molts a feather because he is growing a better one.
Elbert Hubbard
Do not dump your woes upon people — keep the sad story of your life to yourself. Troubles grow by recounting them.
Elbert Hubbard
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
I believe in courtesy, in kindness, in generosity, in good cheer, in friendship and in honest competition. I believe there is something doing somewhere, for every man ready to do it. I believe I'm ready, RIGHT NOW.
Elbert Hubbard
Those who create beauty are also they who possess it.
Elbert Hubbard
One can play comedy, two are required for melodrama, but a tragedy demands three.
Elbert Hubbard
Your neighbor is the man who needs you.
Elbert Hubbard
Happiness is a habit—cultivate it.
Elbert Hubbard
He who influences the thought of his times influences the times that follow.
Elbert Hubbard
Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.
Elbert Hubbard
Most people like hard work, particularly when they're paying for it.
