More quotes by L. Ron Hubbard

L. Ron Hubbard
Affection can no more spoil a child than the sun could be put out by a bucket of gasoline.
L. Ron Hubbard
The differences between a competent person and an incompetent person are demonstrated in his environment (surroundings).
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
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 last Martian report station on Earth was established in the Pyrenees.
L. Ron Hubbard
A human being feels able and competent only so long as he is permitted to contribute as much as or more than he has contributed to him.
L. Ron Hubbard
So we listen. We add up associations of people with people. When a push against Scientology starts somewhere, we go over the people involved and weed them out. Push vanishes.
L. Ron Hubbard
Today's children will become tomorrow's civilization.
L. Ron Hubbard
You would be amazed how much action anyone is capable of.
L. Ron Hubbard
A workman is not just a workman. A laborer is not just a laborer. An office worker is not just an office worker. They are living, breathing, important pillars on which the entire structure of our civilization is erected. They are not cogs in a mighty machine. They are the machine itself.
L. Ron Hubbard
When reading a book, be very certain that you never go past a word you do not fully understand. The only reason a person gives up a study or becomes confused or unable to learn is because he or she has gone past a word that was not understood.
L. Ron Hubbard
Truth is an all-freeing mechanism.
L. Ron Hubbard
If things were a little better known and understood, we would all lead happier lives.
L. Ron Hubbard
Any of us probably could do more important things than we are doing. Any of us could use some changes in our tasks. But none of us - and still stay alive and sane - could do without something to do.
L. Ron Hubbard
Single men and determined groups have been the only makers of space in which man could walk free.
L. Ron Hubbard
One cannot be able in life by fearing to live.
L. Ron Hubbard
You may have been taught that the mind (the spirit, the brain) is a very difficult thing to know about. This is the first principle of Scientology: It is possible to know about the mind, the spirit and life.
L. Ron Hubbard
All great cathedrals began their building by the placement of a single stone. The building unit of a great society is the individual.
L. Ron Hubbard
Getting married is an adventure. Because when you're getting married, you're doing something you don't know anything about. Did you ever think of that?
L. Ron Hubbard
