More quotes by H. G. Wells
No compulsion in the world is stronger than the urge to edit someone else's document.
H. G. Wells
It is not much good thinking of a thing unless you think it out.
H. G. Wells
I see knowledge increasing and human power increasing, I see everincreasing possibilities before life, and I see no limits set to it all. Existence impresses me as a perpetual dawn. Our lives, as I apprehend them, swim in expectation.
H. G. Wells
If we do not end war - war will end us. Everybody says that, millions of people believe it, and nobody does anything.
H. G. Wells
If we don't end war, war will end us.
H. G. Wells
We can't have any weak or silly. Life is real again, and the useless and cumbersome and mischievous have to die. They ought to die. They ought to be willing to die. It's a sort of disloyalty, after all, to live and taint the race.
H. G. Wells
Statistical thinking will one day be as necessary for efficient citizenship as the ability to read and write!
H. G. Wells
There comes a moment in the day when you have written your pages in the morning, attended to your correspondence in the afternoon, and have nothing further to do. Then comes that hour when you are bored that's the time for sex.
H. G. Wells
While there is a chance of the world getting through its troubles, I hold that a reasonable man has to behave as though he were sure of it. If at the end your cheerfulness in not justified, at any rate you will have been cheerful.
H. G. Wells
There's truths you have to grow into.
H. G. Wells
The study of Nature makes a man at last as remorseless as Nature.
H. G. Wells
If you fell down yesterday, stand up today.
H. G. Wells
Good books are the warehouses of ideas.
H. G. Wells
I often think we do not take this business of photography in a sufficiently serious spirit. Issuing a photograph is like marriage: you can only undo the mischief with infinite woe.
H. G. Wells
It is a law of nature we overlook, that intellectual versatility is the compensation for change, danger, and trouble.
H. G. Wells
Are we all bubbles blown by a baby?
H. G. Wells
I hope, or I could not live.
H. G. Wells
I went over the heads of the things a man reckons desirable. No doubt invisibility made it possible to get them, but it made it impossible to enjoy them when they are got.
H. G. Wells
Go away... I'm alright.
H. G. Wells
After your first day of cycling, one dream is inevitable. A memory of motion lingers in the muscles of your legs, and round and round they seem to go. You ride through Dreamland on wonderful dream bicycles that change and grow.
H. G. Wells
