More quotes by Elbert Hubbard
Punishment - The justice that the guilty deal out to those that are caught.
Elbert Hubbard
It is not book learning young men need, nor instruction about this and that, but a stiffening of the vertebra which will cause them to be loyal to a trust, to act promptly, concentrate their energies, do a thing.
Elbert Hubbard
I rather like the World. The Flesh is pleasing and the Devil does not trouble me.
Elbert Hubbard
Gossip is vice enjoyed vicariously
Elbert Hubbard
Many people fail in life, not for lack of ability or brains or even courage but simply because they have never organized their energies around a goal.
Elbert Hubbard
The cure for grief is motion.
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
An ounce of performance is worth more than a pound of preachment.
Elbert Hubbard
An American religion: Work, play, breathe, bathe, study, live, laugh, and love.
Elbert Hubbard
Freedom is a condition of mind, and the best way to secure it is to breed it.
Elbert Hubbard
The great Big Black Things that have loomed against the horizon of my life, threatening to devour me, simply loomed and nothing more. The things that have really made me miss my train have always been sweet, soft, pretty, pleasant things of which I was not in the least afraid.
Elbert Hubbard
To make mistakes is human, but to profit from them is divine.
Elbert Hubbard
We make our money out of our friends. Our enemies will not do business with us.
Elbert Hubbard
The heroic man does not pose he leaves that for the man who wishes to be thought heroic.
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
Faith is the effort to believe what your common sense tells you is not true.
Elbert Hubbard
Time is an illusion-to orators.
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
Thoroughness characterizes all successful men. Genius is the art of taking infinite pains. All great achievement has been characterized by extreme care, infinite painstaking, even to the minutest detail.
Elbert Hubbard
Time is an eternal guest that banquets on our ideals and bodies.
Elbert Hubbard
