More quotes by Elbert Hubbard
Man is not what he thinks he is, but what he thinks, he is.
Elbert Hubbard
Opportunities for education should be within the reach of every individual, not for the lucky few.
Elbert Hubbard
Do not go out of your way to do good whenever it comes your way. Men who make a business of doing good to others are apt to hate others in the same occupation. Simply be filled with the thought of good, and it will radiate you do not have to bother about it, any more than you need trouble about your digestion.
Elbert Hubbard
Real life is in love, laughter, and work.
Elbert Hubbard
Secrets are things we give to others to keep for us.
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
A retentive memory may be a good thing, but the ability to forget is the true token of greatness.
Elbert Hubbard
A failure is a man who has blundered, but is not able to cash in the experience.
Elbert Hubbard
Polygamy: An endeavour to get more out of life than there is in it
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
An ounce of performance is worth more than a pound of preachment.
Elbert Hubbard
If you don't advertise yourself you will be advertised by your loving enemies.
Elbert Hubbard
The reason men oppose progress is not that they hate progress, but that they love inertia.
Elbert Hubbard
The average woman sees only the weak points in a strong man, and the good points in a weak one.
Elbert Hubbard
Art is nothing it's 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
I believe it is possible that I shall make other creeds, and change this one, or add to it, from time to time, as new light may come to me.
Elbert Hubbard
I have noticed that youngsters given to the climbing habit usually do something when they grow up
Elbert Hubbard
Love is not really blind- the bandage is never so tight but that it can peep.
Elbert Hubbard
One thing is sure, there are just two respectable ways to die. One is of old age, and the other is by accident.
