More quotes by L. Ron Hubbard
The second that you make a man truly free, he becomes truly good. And it is only that individual who has lost his belief in himself and his own pride of goodness and his own pride of being and his own honor who is dangerous.
L. Ron Hubbard
The man who has his ideals, no matter how thoroughly he may be persuaded to desert them, survives well only so long as he is true to those ideals.
L. Ron Hubbard
As long as children and young men and women find pleasure in study, they will continue studying throughout life - and upon that depends their happiness.
L. Ron Hubbard
The third principle is that any philosophic knowledge is only valuable if it is true or if it works.
L. Ron Hubbard
The most valuable asset we have, actually, is our ability to understand, to do the right thing, to be kind, to be decent.
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
In North Africa they had the Arab with the gun and whip, but he could force people to do things ... and he accomplished a tremendous amount of extermination, but he certainly didn't advance that civilization very much.
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 entire function of man is to survive. The outermost limit of endeavour is creative work. Anything less is too close to simple survival until death happens along. So I am engaged in striving to maintain equilibrium sufficient to at least realize survival in a way to astound the gods.
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.
L. Ron Hubbard
You want to raise your child in such a way that you don't have to control him, so that he will be in full possession of himself at all times. Upon that depends his good behavior, his health, his sanity.
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
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
Those small brown men who sell their sisters on the streets of Cairo were once the mighty Egyptians.
L. Ron Hubbard
The wrong thing to do about any given circumstance or situation is to do nothing.
L. Ron Hubbard
The only way you can control people is to lie to them. You can write that down in your book in great big letters. The only way you can control anybody is to lie to them.
L. Ron Hubbard
So one predicts the future as much as one is cause. The future isn't a pattern laid out to abuse and bully you. The future is a beautiful playground that nobody happens to be combining. You talk about virgin territory - the most virgin territory there is, is the future. You can do anything you want with it. Nobody is doing anything with it.
L. Ron Hubbard
The way to happiness is much, much easier to travel with people one can trust.
L. Ron Hubbard
Music is indeed the Universal Language.
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.
