More quotes by H. G. Wells
He was inordinately proud of England and he abused her incessantly.
H. G. Wells
In the middle years of the nineteenth century there first became abundant in this strange world of ours a class of men, men tending for the most part to become elderly, who are called, and who are very properly called, but who dislike extremely to be called--Scientists.
H. G. Wells
If we don't end war, war will end us.
H. G. Wells
The character of the Open Conspiracy [the movement towards a world collective] will now be plainly displayed. It will have become a great world movement as widespread and evident as socialism or communism. It will largely have taken the place of these movements. It will be more, it will be a world religion.
H. G. Wells
He who does not contemplate the future is destined to be overwhelmed by it.
H. G. Wells
Democracy's ceremonial, its feast, it's great function, is the election.
H. G. Wells
Sometimes, you have to step outside of the person you've been and remember the person you were meant to be. The person you want to be. The person you are.
H. G. Wells
We're in a blessed drainpipe, and we've got to crawl along it till we die.
H. G. Wells
If all the animals and man had been evolved in this ascendant manner, then there had been no first parents, no Eden, and no Fall. And if there had been no fall, then the entire historical fabric of Christianity, the story of the first sin and the reason for an atonement ... collapsed like a house of cards.
H. G. Wells
The German people are an orderly, vain, deeply sentimental and rather insensitive people. They seem to feel at their best when they are singing in chorus, saluting or obeying orders.
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
Adapt or perish, now as ever, is nature's inexorable imperative.
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
Are we all bubbles blown by a baby?
H. G. Wells
The uglier a man's legs are, the better he plays golf - it's almost a law.
H. G. Wells
...the voice was indisputable. It continued to swear with that breadth and variety that distinguishes the swearing of a cultivated man.
H. G. Wells
Heresies are experiments in man's unsatisfied search for truth.
H. G. Wells
I stood staring, not as yet realising that this was death leaping from man to man in that little distant crowd.
H. G. Wells
Crime and bad lives are the measure of a State's failure, all crime in the end is the crime of the community.
H. G. Wells
Go away... I'm alright.
H. G. Wells
