Moses and the crooked snake... that turned into a stuck, that was actually a disintegrator pistol.
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
What is generally missed, is that my writing financed research.
L. Ron Hubbard
Darwin found out that when you took horses up to the high country in the Middle East, they would then grow long hair after a season or two.

L. Ron Hubbard
You would be amazed how much action anyone is capable of.
L. Ron Hubbard
Man thrives, oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging environment.
L. Ron Hubbard
Now, all America sits in front of television sets and those television sets exude, I am sorry to say, a considerable amount of radioactive material. It's not huge, you know, but it's enough so that people who have made a habit of watching TV ... get the TV radiation.
L. Ron Hubbard
It is not possible to 'spoil' a child with love and affection...a child needs all the love and affection it can possibly get.
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
The mind when it has an old experience will add that data into its current experience, and it keeps coming up with wrong answers.
L. Ron Hubbard
Stress the right of the individual to select only what he desires to know, to use any knowledge as he wishes, that he himself owns what he has learned.
