Adventure, I well know, is in the heart, not in the view.
L. Ron Hubbard
Security is not a static thing. Security would only lie in a man's confidence in reaching his goals and, indeed, in his having goals to reach.
L. Ron Hubbard

In any event, any person from 2.0 down on the Tone Scale should not have, in any thinking society, any civil rights of any kind, because by abusing those rights he brings into being arduous and strenuous laws which are oppressive to those who need no such restraints.
L. Ron Hubbard
In a culture, manners are the lubrication that ease the frictions of social contacts.
L. Ron Hubbard
I have all the world around me. My walls are 180 East Longitude and 90 North and 90 South Latitude.... Adventure is my guidon.
L. Ron Hubbard
Living is a pretty grim joke, but a joke just the same.
L. Ron Hubbard
My own philosophy is that one should share what wisdom he has, one should help others to help themselves and one should keep going despite heavy weather, for there is always a calm ahead.
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
Well I don't know that I'm okay any more than anyone else is okay, I lead a happy life and a very full one - I have a happy marriage and my kids are all cheerful, and no one is finding fault with me, personally.
L. Ron Hubbard
If you can achieve action, you will achieve happiness.
L. Ron Hubbard
Any information is valuable to the degree that you can use it.
L. Ron Hubbard
Choice is the keynote of self-determinism. To determine anything, you must have the choice to determine. Choice to determine means that you must have the power of decision. Decision and time have a lot in common. When we have clean, clear decision, we have clean, clear time. And when we have indecision, there is an unclarity about time.
L. Ron Hubbard
One cannot be able in life by fearing to live.
