You have to create a dummy table. I think there is a JIRA open to provide a 
usage similar to the one you mentioned below.

Subject: Simple question FROM clause


I would like to select some constants and there is no from clause, but hive 
says it needs one.  Do I have to create a dummy table for these or is there a 
better way?

select 'this', 'and', 'that';
