More quotes by Elbert Hubbard
Growth is often a painful process.
Elbert Hubbard
Genius is the ability to act rightly without precedent - the power to do the right thing the first time.
Elbert Hubbard
The man who craves disciples and wants followers is always more or less of a charlatan. The man of genuine worth and insight wants to be himself and he wants others to be themselves, also.
Elbert Hubbard
Love grows by giving. The love we give away is the only love we keep. The only way to retain love is to give it away.
Elbert Hubbard
Government is a kind of legalized pillage.
Elbert Hubbard
Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped.
Elbert Hubbard
The line between failure and success is so fine that we scarcely know when we pass it: so fine that we are often on the line and do not know it.
Elbert Hubbard
A woman will doubt everything you say except it be compliments to herself.
Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard
What others say of me matters little what I myself say and do matters much.
Elbert Hubbard
The new definition of a heathen is a man who has never played baseball.
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
Love is not really blind- the bandage is never so tight but that it can peep.
Elbert Hubbard
Your neighbor is the man who needs you.
Elbert Hubbard
The newspapers print what the people want, and thus does the savage still swing his club and flourish his spear.
Elbert Hubbard
Often we can help each other most by leaving each other alone at other times we need the hand-grasp and the word of cheer.
Elbert Hubbard
It is only life and love that give love and life.
Elbert Hubbard
