More quotes by 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
If only I had thought of a Kodak! I could have flashed that glimpse of the Under-world in a second, and examined it at leisure.
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
He was inordinately proud of England and he abused her incessantly.
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
Go away... I'm alright.
H. G. Wells
A day will come when beings, now latent in our thoughts and hidden in our loins, shall stand upon Earth as a footstool and laugh, and reach out their hands amidst the stars.
H. G. Wells
Satan delights equally in statistics and in quoting scripture.
H. G. Wells
The too perfect security of the Upper-worlders had led them to a slow movement of degeneration, a general dwindling in size, strength, and intelligence.
H. G. Wells
I hope, or I could not live.
H. G. Wells
All men, however highly educated, retain some superstitious inklings.
H. G. Wells
The War That Will End War.
H. G. Wells
There's nothing wrong in suffering, if you suffer for a purpose. Our revolution didn't abolish danger or death. It simply made danger and death worthwhile.
H. G. Wells
The Jews looked for a special savior, a messiah, who was to redeem mankind by the agreeable process of restoring the fabulous glories of David and Solomon, and bringing the whole world at last under the firm but benevolent Jewish heel.
H. G. Wells
You have, let us say, a promising politician, a rising artist that you wish to destroy. Dagger or bomb are archaic, clumsy and unreliable - but teach him, inoculate him with chess.
H. G. Wells
It is the system of nationalist individualism that has to go....We are living in the end of the sovereign states....In the great struggle to evoke a Westernized World Socialism, contemporary governments may vanish....Countless people...will hate the new world order....and will die protesting against it.
H. G. Wells
There is no remorse like a remorse of chess. It is a curse upon man. There is no happiness in chess.
H. G. Wells
I want to go ahead of Father Time with a scythe of my own.
H. G. Wells
Countless people...will hate the New World Order...and will die protesting against it...we have to bear in mind the distress of a generation or so of malcontents.
H. G. Wells
It is only now and then, in a jungle, or amidst the towering white menace of a burnt or burning Australian forest, that Nature strips the moral veils from vegetation and we apprehend its stark ferocity.
H. G. Wells
