H. G. Wells

H. G. Wells
The forceps of our minds are clumsy forceps, and crush the truth a little in taking hold of it.
H. G. Wells
Are we all bubbles blown by a baby?
H. G. Wells
I write to cover a frame of ideas.
H. G. Wells
The man who raises a fist has run out of ideas.
H. G. Wells
What good is religion if it collapses under calamity?
H. G. Wells
By this time I was no longer very much terrified or very miserable. I had, as it were, passed the limit of terror and despair. I felt now that my life was practically lost, and that persuasion made me capable of daring anything
H. G. Wells

H. G. Wells
