The War That Will End War.
H. G. Wells
There is no remorse like the remorse of Chess
H. G. Wells
The State's your mother, your father, the totality of your interests. No discipline can be too severe for the man that denies thatby word or deed.
H. G. Wells
We want to get rid of the militarist not simply because he hurts and kills, but because he is an intolerable thick-voiced blockhead who stands hectoring and blustering in our way of achievement.
H. G. Wells

H. G. Wells

H. G. Wells
Our challenge is not to educate the children we used to have or want to have, but to educate the children who come to the schoolhouse door.
H. G. Wells
Are we all bubbles blown by a baby?
H. G. Wells
Sailors ought never to go to church. They ought to go to hell, where it is much more comfortable.
H. G. Wells
If you fell down yesterday, stand up today.
H. G. Wells
Cynicism is humor in ill health.
H. G. Wells
The Anglo-Saxon genius for parliamentary government asserted itself there was a great deal of talk and no decisive action.
H. G. Wells
I write as straight as I can, just as I walk as straight as I can, because that is the best way to get there.
H. G. Wells
Bah! The thing is not a nose at all, but a bit of primordial chaos clapped on to my face.
H. G. Wells
