More quotes by Hubert H. Humphrey
If I believe in something, I will fight for it with all I have. But I do not demand all or nothing. I would rather get something than nothing. Professional liberals want the fiery debate. They glory in defeat. The hardest job for a politician today is to have the courage to be a moderate. It's easy to take an extreme position.
Hubert H. Humphrey
Anyone who thinks that the vice-president can take a position independent of the president of his administration simply has no knowledge of politics or government. You are his choice in a political marriage, and he expects your absolute loyalty.
Hubert H. Humphrey
There are incalculable resources in the human spirit, once it has been set free.
Hubert H. Humphrey
I am absolutely disgusted that anyone would put thousands of America's boys at risk just to win a Political Campaign.
Hubert H. Humphrey
We will be remembered not for the power of our weapons but for the power of our compassion, our dedication to human welfare.
Hubert H. Humphrey
To be realistic today is to be visionary. To be realistic is to be starry-eyed.
Hubert H. Humphrey
You cannot go around and keep score. If you keep score on the good things and the bad things, you'll find out that you're a very miserable person. God gave man the ability to forget, which is one of the greatest attributes you have. Because if you remember everything that's happened to you, you generally remember that which is the most unfortunate.
Hubert H. Humphrey
We will have to decide today whether we will design the future or resign ourselves to it.
Hubert H. Humphrey
Much of our American progress has been the product of the individual who had an idea pursued it fashioned it tenaciously clung to it against all odds and then produced it, sold it, and profited from it.
Hubert H. Humphrey
We can not expect to breed respect for law and order among people who do not share the fruits of our freedom.
Hubert H. Humphrey
If today there is a proper American sphere of influence it is this fragile sphere called earth upon which all men live and share a common fate--a sphere where our influence must be for peace and justice.
Hubert H. Humphrey
What you do, what each of us does, has an effect on the country, the state, the nation, and the world.
Hubert H. Humphrey
As we begin to comprehend that the earth itself is a kind of manned spaceship hurtling through the infinity of space ~ it will seem increasingly absurd that we have not better organized the life of the human family.
Hubert H. Humphrey
If I believe in something, I will fight for it, with all I have. But I do not demand all or nothing. I would rather get something than nothing.
Hubert H. Humphrey
Foreign policy is really domestic policy with its hat on.
Hubert H. Humphrey
There is in every American, I think, something of the old Daniel Boone - who, when he could see the smoke from another chimney, felt himself too crowded and moved further out into the wilderness.
Hubert H. Humphrey
You cannot tell a poor boy from a small country town on the plains of South Dakota who has had the opportunity to be a teacher, a mayor, a senator, and a vice president, that America is not a nation of promise.
Hubert H. Humphrey
The essence of statesmanship is not a rigid adherence to the past, but a prudent and probing concern for the future.
Hubert H. Humphrey
What we need are critical lovers of America - patriots who express their faith in their country by working to improve it.
Hubert H. Humphrey
A politician never forgets the precarious nature of elective life. We have never established a practice of tenure in public office.
Hubert H. Humphrey
