More quotes by 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
I'll not always be here on guard. The stars twinkle in the Milky Way and the wind sighs for songs across the empty fields of a planet a Galaxy away. You won't always be here. But before you go, whisper this to your sons and their sons - The work was free. Keep it so.
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
A philosophy can only be a route to knowledge. It cannot be knowledge crammed down one's throat. If one has a route, he can then find what is true for him. And that is Scientology.
L. Ron Hubbard
Religion is the first sense of community. Your sense of community occurs by reason of mutual experience with others.
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
Insecurity exists in the absence of knowledge. All security derives from knowledge.
L. Ron Hubbard
A suppressing person isn't critical. A suppressing person is a person who denies the rights of others.
L. Ron Hubbard
There is no national problem in the world today which cannot be resolved by reason alone.
L. Ron Hubbard
Single men and determined groups have been the only makers of space in which man could walk free.
L. Ron Hubbard
One cannot hold power and not use it.
L. Ron Hubbard
Never discuss Scientology with the critic. Just discuss his or her crimes, known and unknown.
L. Ron Hubbard
Dreams, goals, ambitions - these are the stuff man uses for fuel.
L. Ron Hubbard
The only way you can be successful on a post or win at it is to be at cause over it.
L. Ron Hubbard
Now if we can get white population, immigrants and big companies and so on moving into Africa and if we can get with that Scientology well established in Southern Africa, why we can then look forward to a salvage operation base, in case the northern hemisphere's lights go out.
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
Affection can no more spoil a child than the sun could be put out by a bucket of gasoline.
L. Ron Hubbard
We've got some new ways to make slaves here.
L. Ron Hubbard
Are you making life or is life making you?
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
