Living is having and following a purpose. That's all.
L. Ron Hubbard
Morale is boosted to high highs by accomplishment. In fact, it can be demonstrated that production is the basis of morale.
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
Now we say there's, well, another place in the world-there's India. Wonderful place - except for its people.
L. Ron Hubbard
The DEFENSE of anything is UNTENABLE. The only way to defend anything is to ATTACK, and if you ever forget that, then you will lose every battle you are ever engaged in, whether it is in terms of personal conversation, public debate, or a court of law. NEVER BE INTERESTED IN CHARGES. DO, yourself, much MORE CHARGING, and you will WIN.
L. Ron Hubbard
Unethical conduct is actually the conduct of destruction and fear lies are told because one is afraid of the consequences should one tell the truth thus, the liar is inevitably a coward, the coward is inevitably a liar.
L. Ron Hubbard
The South African native is probably the one impossible person to train in the entire world he is probably impossible by any human standard.
L. Ron Hubbard
The African tribesman, with his complete contempt for truth and his emphasis on brutality and savagery for others but not for himself, is a no-civilization.
L. Ron Hubbard
Living is a pretty grim joke, but a joke just the same.
L. Ron Hubbard
Your Integrity is more important than your immediate Life.
L. Ron Hubbard
If attacked on some vulnerable point by anyone or anything or any organization, always find or manufacture enough threat against them to cause them to sue for peace.
L. Ron Hubbard
Scientology is used to increase spiritual freedom, intelligence, ability and to produce immortality.
L. Ron Hubbard
When you can be your own best audience and when your applause is the best applause you know of, youre in good shape.
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
Adventure, I well know, is in the heart, not in the view.
L. Ron Hubbard
When this government [Chiang Kaishek's] finally fell there was no one ready to teach the Chinese the human way of life.
L. Ron Hubbard
Every separate sector of artistic creation has its own basic rules . . . data which govern it. They are contained in the textbooks on these subjects. A professional knows the rules of the game as a matter of course so that he can achieve, in the upper strata above that, a high quality of art.
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
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
There is no national problem in the world today which cannot be resolved by reason alone.
L. Ron Hubbard
