Quotes by Ladee Hubbard  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Johnny Ribkins, there was a time when you could've been anything you wanted to be, a doctor, lawyer or an Indian chief...instead all you are is a damn shame.”
Ladee Hubbard, The Talented Ribkins

“You grow up, you get older. Love and gratitude come to you in phases and sometimes come to an end. What changed was not the nature of illusions but your relationship to them. At some point you realized that you wanted to survive, that sometimes survival itself was an act of love.”
Ladee Hubbard, The Last Suspicious Holdout: Stories

“It was the way of the world. There were always bigger crooks hiding in the shadows, the biggest ones you never saw at all. They kept to themselves and counted their money and somehow managed to keep most folks busy fighting it out among themselves over crumbs.”
Ladee Hubbard, The Talented Ribkins
