More quotes by L. Ron Hubbard
I'm drinking lots of rum and popping pinks and greys.
L. Ron Hubbard
Moses and the crooked snake... that turned into a stuck, that was actually a disintegrator pistol.
L. Ron Hubbard
So one predicts the future as much as one is cause. The future isn't a pattern laid out to abuse and bully you. The future is a beautiful playground that nobody happens to be combining. You talk about virgin territory - the most virgin territory there is, is the future. You can do anything you want with it. Nobody is doing anything with it.
L. Ron Hubbard
The Ultimate decision, the fastest decision there is, is ACTION!
L. Ron Hubbard
The only way you can control people is to lie to them. You can write that down in your book in great big letters. The only way you can control anybody is to lie to them.
L. Ron Hubbard
Living is having and following a purpose. That's all.
L. Ron Hubbard
And what do you think will happen to you when you find life is just too good to be left alone? You'll start living it.
L. Ron Hubbard
If anyone is getting industrious trying to enturbulate [sic] or stop Scientology or its activities, I can make Captain Bligh look like a Sunday-school teacher. There is probably no limit on what I would do to safeguard Man's only road to freedom against persons who ... seek to stop Scientology or hurt Scientologists.
L. Ron Hubbard
You want to raise your child in such a way that you don't have to control him, so that he will be in full possession of himself at all times. Upon that depends his good behavior, his health, his sanity.
L. Ron Hubbard
As long as children and young men and women find pleasure in study, they will continue studying throughout life - and upon that depends their happiness.
L. Ron Hubbard
I like to help others and count it as my greatest pleasure in life to see a person free himself of the shadows which darken his days.
L. Ron Hubbard
China, slavishly dedicated to ancient scholars, incapable of generating within herself sufficient rulers to continue, without bloodshed, a nation.
L. Ron Hubbard
Understanding has very specific component parts. These component parts are affinity, reality and communication.
L. Ron Hubbard
Happiness and strength endure only in the absence of hate. To hate alone is the road to disaster. To love is the road to strength. To love in spite of all is the secret of greatness. And may very well be the greatest secret in this universe.
L. Ron Hubbard
Nothing in Scientology is true for you unless you have observed it and it is true according to your observation
L. Ron Hubbard
The end and goal of any society as it addresses the problem of education is to raise the ability, the initiative and the cultural level, and with all these the survival level of that society.
L. Ron Hubbard
True greatness merely refuses to change in the face of bad actions against oneāand a truly great person loves his fellows because he understands them.
L. Ron Hubbard
The sudden and abrupt deletion of all individuals occupying the lower bands of the Tone Scale from the social order would result in an almost instant rise in the cultural tone and would interrupt the dwindling spiral into which any society may have entered.
L. Ron Hubbard
I am studying ancient civilizations, trying to find what happened to them, finding out why they went into a decline, why they died.
L. Ron Hubbard
Truth is an all-freeing mechanism.
