More quotes by L. Ron Hubbard
Scientology...is not a religion.
L. Ron Hubbard
You'll find in Africans a fantastic amount of heavy space opera and so on, going on ... which makes the colored African very, very interesting to process because he doesn't know why he goes through all these dances ... and why he feels so barbarous.
L. Ron Hubbard
See what you see, not what someone tells you that you see
L. Ron Hubbard
Getting married is an adventure. Because when you're getting married, you're doing something you don't know anything about. Did you ever think of that?
L. Ron Hubbard
I would say that 99 per cent of what my father has written about his own life is false.
L. Ron Hubbard
The differences between a competent person and an incompetent person are demonstrated in his environment (surroundings).
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
Understanding has very specific component parts. These component parts are affinity, reality and communication.
L. Ron Hubbard
And what do you think will happen to you when you find life is just too good to be left alone? You'll start living it.
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

L. Ron Hubbard
Artistry is to a large degree simplicity.
L. Ron Hubbard
I have seen life from the top down and the bottom up. I know how it looks both ways. And I know there is wisdom and that there is hope.
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
We're not playing some minor game in Scientology. It isn't cute or something to do for lack of something better. The whole agonized future of this planet, every Man, Woman and Child on it, and your own destiny for the next endless trillions of years depend on what you do here and now with and in Scientology.
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
A society in which women are taught anything but the management of a family, the care of men and the creation of the future generation is a society which is on the way out.
L. Ron Hubbard
Not smoking enough will cause lung cancer! If anybody is getting a cancerous activity in the lung, the probabilities are that it's radiation dosage coupled with the fact that he smokes. And what it does is start to run out the radiation dosage, don't you see.
L. Ron Hubbard
Learning locked in mildewed books is of little use to anyone and therefore of no value unless it can be used.
L. Ron Hubbard
Freedom is for honest people. No man who is not himself honest can be free – he is his own trap.
