More quotes by 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
God is good, there is no devil but fear.
Elbert Hubbard
The Great Man is a man who lives a long way off.
Elbert Hubbard
The recipe for perpetual ignorance is: Be satisfied with your opinions and content with your knowledge.
Elbert Hubbard
Live truth instead of professing it.
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
Love is not really blind- the bandage is never so tight but that it can peep.
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
The man who doesn't relax and hoot a few hoots voluntarily, now and then, is in great danger of hooting hoots and standing on his head for the edification of the pathologist and trained nurse, a little later on.
Elbert Hubbard
The teacher is one who makes two ideas grow where only one grew before.
Elbert Hubbard
Man is Creation's masterpiece. But who says so?
Elbert Hubbard
The secret of success is this: there is no secret of success.
Elbert Hubbard
Would you make men better - set them an example. The millenium will never come until governments cease from governing, and the meddler is at rest.
Elbert Hubbard
Respectability is the dickey on the bosom of civilization.
Elbert Hubbard
Many a man's reputation would not know his character if they met on the street.
Elbert Hubbard
It does not take much strength to do things, but it requires great strength to decide on what to do.
Elbert Hubbard
Art is not a thing it is a way.
Elbert Hubbard
Self-control is the ability to restrain a laugh at the wrong place.
Elbert Hubbard
A school should not be a preparation for life. A school should be life.
Elbert Hubbard
Secrets are things we give to others to keep for us.
Elbert Hubbard
