Sailors ought never to go to church. They ought to go to hell, where it is much more comfortable.
H. G. Wells
We live in a world of unused and misapplied knowledge and skill.
H. G. Wells

H. G. Wells
I am an historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history.
H. G. Wells
We were not making war against Germany, we were being ordered about in the King's war with Germany.
H. G. Wells
To ride a bicycle properly is very like a love affair-chiefly it is a matter of faith. Believe you do it, and the thing is done doubt, and, for the life of you, you cannot.
H. G. Wells
He began to realize that you cannot even fight happily with creatures that stand upon a different mental basis to yourself.
H. G. Wells
I must confess that I lost faith in the sanity of the world
H. G. Wells
It is not much good thinking of a thing unless you think it out.
H. G. Wells
