More quotes by L. Ron Hubbard
The artist, day by day, by postulating the new realities of the future, accomplishes peaceful revolution.
L. Ron Hubbard
And I don't see that popular measures, self-abnegation and democracy have done anything for Man but push him further into the mud. Currently, popularity endorses degraded novels, self-abnegation has filled the Southeast Asian jungles with stone idols and corpses, and democracy has given us inflation and income tax.
L. Ron Hubbard
God was feeling sardonic the day He created the Universe. So it's rather up to at least one man every few centuries to pop up and come just as close to making him swallow his laughter as possible.
L. Ron Hubbard
One cannot hold power and not use it.
L. Ron Hubbard
In fact, you don’t have a soul, you are your own soul. In other words, you are not this book, your social security card, your body or your mind. You are you.
L. Ron Hubbard
A political system seeking to function amongst ignorant, illiterate and barbaric people could have marvelous principles but could only succeed in being ignorant, illiterate and barbaric unless one addressed the people one by one and cured the ignorance, illiteracy and barbarism of each citizen.
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
Well, I don't know that I'm OK any more than anybody else is OK but I've led at least a happy life and a very full one.
L. Ron Hubbard
The best way to know any future is to cause one.
L. Ron Hubbard
All men have inalienable rights to think freely, to talk freely, to write freely their own opinions and to counter or utter or write upon the opinions of others.
L. Ron Hubbard
This [Scientology] is useful knowledge. With it the blind again see, the lame walk, the ill recover, the insane become sane and the sane become saner. By its use the thousand abilities Man has sought to recover become his once more.
L. Ron Hubbard
Boldness in itself is genius.
L. Ron Hubbard
True greatness depends on total wisdom. The real lesson is to learn to love.
L. Ron Hubbard
Man thrives, oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging environment.
L. Ron Hubbard
Unlike yellow and brown people, the white does not usually believe he can get attention from matter or objects. ... The white goes further. He often believes he can get attention only from whites and that yellow and brown people's attention is worthless. Thus the yellow and brown races are not very progressive, but, by and large, saner.
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
I know no man who has any monopoly upon the wisdom of this universe. It belongs to those who can use it to help themselves and others.
L. Ron Hubbard
Today's children will become tomorrow's civilization.
L. Ron Hubbard
Here on Earth there was undoubtedly a Christ. One of the reasons he swept in so suddenly and he would go forward so hard is, he had a good assist in back of him in terms of an implant.
L. Ron Hubbard
Men who know are secure. Men who don't know believe in luck.
