It is not man's dreams that fail him. It is the lack of know-how required to bring those dreams into actuality.
L. Ron Hubbard -
What is true for you is what you have observed yourself. And when you lose that, you have lost everything.

For a very great many years, I asked this question: ‘To communicate or not to communicate?’ If one got himself in such thorough trouble by communication, then of course one should stop communicating. But this is not the case. If one gets himself into trouble by communicating, he should further communicate. More communication, not less, is the answer.
L. Ron Hubbard -
The ultimate freedom depends on knowing the ultimate Truth. Truth is not what people say it is, it is what it is. And Truth, quite remarkably, sets one free, just like philosophers have said down the ages.
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 -
You make New Year's resolutions. And you make them into the teeth of old resolutions which were different. Then you don't keep your new resolutions and you tell yourself you are weak-willed. You aren't weak-willed, you are simply obeying yourself as of yesterday.
L. Ron Hubbard -
What is important is how much service you can give the world and how much you can get done and how much better you can make things.
L. Ron Hubbard -
You remember when you were maybe five years old and you went out in the morning and you looked at the day - and it was a very, very beautiful day.
L. Ron Hubbard
-
It takes truth to live with a swiftly changing world. Nothing less than truth can survive. You cannot survive with anything less than truth.
L. Ron Hubbard -
All disturbance and chaos folds up in the teeth of truth. Dont ever try to stop truth. Its the only thing that can go through 16-inch armor plate.
L. Ron Hubbard -
I have high hopes of smashing my name into history so violently that it will take a legendary form even if all books are destroyed.
L. Ron Hubbard -
Actually, have you ever noticed how a Negro, in particular down south, where they're pretty close to the soil, personifies MEST? The gatepost and the wagon and the whip and anything around there-a hat. They talk to them, you know. "What'sa mattuh wi' you hat?" They imbue them with personality.
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 -
Scientology is the science of knowing how to know answers. It is a wisdom in the tradition of ten thousand years of search in Asia and Western civilization. It is the Science of Human Affairs which treats the livingness and beingness of Man and demonstrates to him a pathway to greater freedom.

Japanese is a baby talk - very, very hard to read, very, very, easy to talk. ... A very faint kind of language.
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 -
You are treating yourself in present time much as you were treated by others in the past. And you punish yourself far more than anyone would ever punish you.
L. Ron Hubbard -
Being competent means the ability to control and operate the things in the environment and the environment itself.
L. Ron Hubbard -
The DEFENSE of anything is UNTENABLE. The only way to defend anything is to ATTACK, and if you ever forget that, then you will lose every battle you are ever engaged in, whether it is in terms of personal conversation, public debate, or a court of law. NEVER BE INTERESTED IN CHARGES. DO, yourself, much MORE CHARGING, and you will WIN.
L. Ron Hubbard -
Communication is the root of marital success from which a strong union can grow, and noncommunicatio n is the rock on which the ship will bash out her keel.
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 -
One of the reasons they [the Japanese] have bad eyesight is probably these microscopic characters [furigana] which have many lines and strokes to them.& We wonder why they went mad and bombed Pearl Harbor when they knew they couldn't win. That [the Japanese language] would be a reason.
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 -
Change no man’s religion, change no man’s politics, interrupt the sovereignty of no nation. Instead, teach Man to use what he has and what he knows to the factual creation, within any political reference, of a civilization on Earth for the first time.
