- Moses Hadas (1900-1966) in a review I have read your book and much like it. - Moses Hadas Thank you for sending me a copy of your book - I'll waste no time reading it. - Moses Hadas I think life is really hard sometimes. It's not easy to wake up every day and go through what you go through. But the beautiful moments that you share with people that you love, or even experience alone, are worth all of the pain and sorrow. Those moments should be cherished, and I think that's what music is all about - to remind people of the beautiful moments that are in everybody's life. - Charlie Haden You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. - H.R. Haldeman There is something that is much more scarce, something rarer than ability. It is the ability to recognizeability. - Robert Half Men give me credit for some genius. All the genius I have lies in this; when I have a subject in hand, I study it profoundly. Day and night it is before me. My mind becomes pervaded with it. Then the effort that I have made is what people are pleased to call the fruit of genius. It is the fruit of labor and thought. - Alexander Hamilton Those who stand for nothing fall for anything. - Alexander Hamilton War will cease when men refuse to fight. - Fridtjof Hansen Don't do drugs because if you do drugs you'll go to prison, and drugs are really expensive in prison. - John Hardwick What is a committee? A group of the unwilling, picked from the unfit, to do the unnecessary. - Richard Harkness Ninety percent of the world's woe comes from people not knowing themselves, their abilities, their frailties, and even their real virtues. Most of us go almost all the way through life as complete strangers to ourselves. - Sydney J. Harris When I hear somebody sigh, Life is hard, I am always tempted to ask, Compared to what? - Sydney J. Harris Nobody can be so amusingly arrogant as a young man who has just discovered an old idea and thinks it is his own. - Sydney J. Harris The nice thing about egotists is that they don't talk about other people. - Lucille S. Harper In times like these, it is helpful to remember that there have always been times like these. - Paul Harvey While there may be no "right" way to value a forest or a river, there is a wrong way, which is to give it no value at all. How do we decide the value of a 700-year-old tree? We need only to ask how much it would cost to make a new one, or a new river, or even a new atmosphere. - Paul Hawken If you don't make mistakes, you aren't really trying. - Coleman Hawking There is all the difference in the world between treating people equally and attempting to make them equal. While the first is the condition of a free society, the second means as DeTocqueville describes it, a new form of servitude. - F.A. Hayek We must face the fact that the preservation of individual freedom is incompatible with a full satisfaction of our views of distributive justice. - F.A. Hayek Prosperity is a great teacher; adversity a greater. - William Hazlitt Opinions founded on prejudice are always sustained with the greatest violence. - Hebrew Proverb I'm not going to get into the ring with Tolstoy. - Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) Never mistake motion for action. - Ernest Hemingway Nothing is more common than unfulfilled potential. - Howard Hendricks Plain women know more about men than beautiful ones do. But beautiful women don't need to know about men. It's the men who have to know about beautiful women. - Katherine Hepburn We are most nearly ourselves when we achieve the seriousness of the child at play. - Heraclitus There is nothing permanent except change. - Heraclitus Love and a cough cannot be hid. - George Herbert Manuscript: something submitted in haste and returned at leisure. - Oliver Herford (1863-1935) Great deeds are usually wrought at great risks. - Herodotus The brighter you are, the more you have to learn. - Don Herold I never met anyone like him, and I don't expect to ever again. You see, Andy's gift was not his talent or his skills-it was his genius, the genius of what he dared. - Judd Hirsch If you don't ask "why this?" often enough, somebody will ask "why you?" - Tom Hirshfield I heard someone tried the monkeys-on-typewriters bit trying for the plays of W. Shakespeare, but all they got was the collected works of Francis Bacon. - Bill Hirst Drama is life with the dull bits cut out. - Alfred Hitchcock The victor will never be asked if he told the truth. - Adolf Hitler What luck for the rulers that men do not think. - Adolf Hitler Strength lies not in defense but in attack. - Adolf Hitler Success is the sole earthly judge of right and wrong. - Adolf Hitler The very first esential for success is a prepetually constant and regular employment of violence. - Adolf Hitler The great masses of the people... will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one. - Adolf Hitler When you're away, I'm restless, lonely, wretched, bored, dejected; only here's the rub, my darling dear, I feel the same when you're near. - Samuel Hoffenstein You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means he uses to frighten you. - Eric Hoffer We are told that talent creates its own opportunities. But it sometimes seems that intense desire creates not only its own opportunities, but its own talents. - Eric Hoffer The first duty of a revolutionary is to get away with it. - Abbie Hoffman Hell is paved with good samaritans. - William M. Holden There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up. - John Andrew Holmes Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimension. - Oliver Wendell Holmes (1841-1935) The right to swing my fist ends where the other man's nose begins. - Oliver Wendell Holmes Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it. - Lou Holtz Justice is incidental to law and order. - J. Edgar Hoover You manage things; you lead people. - Admiral Grace Murray Hopper, USN Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped. - Elbert Hubbard The greatest mistake you can make is to be continually fearing you will make one. - Elbert Hubbard He has achieved success who has worked well, laughed often, and loved much. - Elbert Hubbard To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, be nothing. - Elbert Hubbard Boys will be boys, and so will a lot of middle-aged men. - Kin Hubbard When a fellow says it ain't the money but the principle of the thing, it's the money. - Kin Hubbard Now and then an innocent man is sent to the legislature. - Kin Hubbard Don't knock the weather; nine-tenths of the people couldn't start a conversation if it didn't change once in a while. - Kin Hubbard Security is not the meaning of my life. Great opportunities are worth the risk. - Shirley Hufstedler He who opens a school door, closes a prison. - Victor Hugo There is a country in Europe where multiple-choice tests are illegal. - Sigfried Hulzer The right to be heard does not automatically include the right to be taken seriously. - Hubert H. Humphrey Behind every successful man stands a surprised mother-in-law. - Hubert H. Humphrey Whatever is not nailed down is mine. What I can pry loose is not nailed down. - Collis P. Huntingdon The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment. - Robert Hutchins Maybe this world is another planet's Hell. - Aldous Huxley Experience is not what happens to you. It is what you do with what happens to you. - Aldous Huxley There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self. - Aldous Huxley Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. - Aldous Huxley |
