More quotes by L. Ron Hubbard
Insecurity exists in the absence of knowledge. All security derives from knowledge.
L. Ron Hubbard
Learning locked in mildewed books is of little use to anyone and therefore of no value unless it can be used.
L. Ron Hubbard
There is no national problem in the world today which cannot be resolved by reason alone.
L. Ron Hubbard
Now, get this as a technical fact, not a hopeful idea. Every time we have investigated the background of a critic of Scientology, we have found crimes for which that person or group could be imprisoned under existing law. We do not find critics of Scientology who do not have criminal pasts.
L. Ron Hubbard
Dreams, goals, ambitions - these are the stuff man uses for fuel.
L. Ron Hubbard
The only way you can be successful on a post or win at it is to be at cause over it.
L. Ron Hubbard
A civilization without insanity, without criminals and without war, where the able can prosper and honest beings can have rights, and where man is free to rise to greater heights, are the aims of Scientology.
L. Ron Hubbard
Religion is the first sense of community. Your sense of community occurs by reason of mutual experience with others.
L. Ron Hubbard
The second that you make a man truly free, he becomes truly good. And it is only that individual who has lost his belief in himself and his own pride of goodness and his own pride of being and his own honor who is dangerous.
L. Ron Hubbard
The greatest ability in the whole human race and all amongst the livingness, is the ability to help.
L. Ron Hubbard
I am a writer of the textbooks of scientology.
L. Ron Hubbard
Those small brown men who sell their sisters on the streets of Cairo were once the mighty Egyptians.
L. Ron Hubbard
If at this moment you simply made up your minds that you were handsome, beautiful, strong, dangerous, powerful, that you knew everything there was to know, you were totally capable in any job that you undertook or any sport you undertook-if you really believed that, and you can believe it, some of your faces would change physically before my eyes.
L. Ron Hubbard
There is no person alive who cannot make a new beginning.
L. Ron Hubbard
Tolerance is a good cornerstone on which to build human relationships.
L. Ron Hubbard
Never regret yesterday. Life is in you today and you make your tomorrow.
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
God was feeling sardonic the day He created the Universe. So it's rather up to at least one man every few centuries to pop up and come just as close to making him swallow his laughter as possible.
L. Ron Hubbard
The clue to happiness is being interested in life. People's happiness is as great as they can create it.
L. Ron Hubbard
The way out is the way through.
