L. Ron Hubbard
Men who know are secure. Men who don't know believe in luck.
L. Ron Hubbard
A truly Suppressive Person or group has no rights of any kind and actions taken against them are not punishable.

L. Ron Hubbard
Tolerance is a good cornerstone on which to build human relationships.

L. Ron Hubbard
You don't get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion.
L. Ron Hubbard
The problem of South Africa is different than the world thinks. There is no native problem. The native worker gets more than white workers do in England! [...] The South African government is not a police state. It's easier on people than the United States government!
L. Ron Hubbard
True greatness merely refuses to change in the face of bad actions against one—and a truly great person loves his fellows because he understands them.
L. Ron Hubbard
One of the reasons they [the Japanese] have bad eyesight is probably these microscopic characters [furigana] which have many lines and strokes to them.& We wonder why they went mad and bombed Pearl Harbor when they knew they couldn't win. That [the Japanese language] would be a reason.
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
The best way to know any future is to cause one.
L. Ron Hubbard
