More quotes by 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 cannot use a double standard for measuring our own and other people's policies. Our demands for democratic practices in other lands will be no more effective than the guarantees of those practiced in our own country.
Hubert H. Humphrey
The President is the peoples lobbyist.
Hubert H. Humphrey
It is better to gain a foot than to stand still, even when you seek to gain a mile.
Hubert H. Humphrey

Hubert H. Humphrey
My favorite sandwich is peanut butter, baloney, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and mayonnaise on toasted bread with catsup on the side.
Hubert H. Humphrey
There are incalculable resources in the human spirit, once it has been set free.

Hubert H. Humphrey

Hubert H. Humphrey
To err is human. To blame someone else is politics.
Hubert H. Humphrey
The measure of a civilization is how it treats those at the dawn of life, the margins of life and the twilight of life.
Hubert H. Humphrey
Slumism is the pent-up anger of people living on the outside of affluence. Slumism is decay of structure and deterioration of the human spirit. Slumism is a virus which spreads through the body politic. As other isms, it breeds disorder and demagoguery and hate.
Hubert H. Humphrey
We need an America with the wisdom of experience. But we must not let America grow old in spirit.
Hubert H. Humphrey
The history of the labor movement needs to be taught in every school in this land. America is a living testimonial to what free men and women, organized in free democratic trade unions can do to make a better life. We ought to be proud of it!
Hubert H. Humphrey
There is a great deal of difference between living and surviving. You can survive in debauchery, even in sickness and despair. But you live with a spirit of vitality and a spirit of participation, of being wanted, and having something to contribute.
Hubert H. Humphrey
The ugliness of bigotry stands in direct contradiction to the very meaning of America.
Hubert H. Humphrey
More progress results from the violent execution of an imperfect plan than the perfection of a plan to violently execute.
Hubert H. Humphrey
