Lafayette Ronald Hubbard citáty

Lafayette Ronald Hubbard bol americký spisovateľ, zakladateľ dianetiky a scientológie. Mimo obrovského množstva scientologickej literatúry napísal taktiež mnoho dobrodružných a vedeckofantastických diel.

Narodil sa v Tildene v Nebraske v rodine armádneho dôstojníka a feministickej vysokoškolskej pedagogičky. V mladosti veľa cestoval . V roku 1930 sa zapísal na štúdium stavebníctva na George Washington University vo Washingtone. Zapísal sa tiež napr. do jedného z prvých kurzov jadrovej fyziky . Univerzitu nedokončil, opustil ju v roku 1931. Živil sa ako pilot a spisovateľ, ako letec sa zúčastnil rôznych expedícii.

V roku 1933 si vzal svoju prvú ženu, spisovateľku Margaret Grubbovú, s ktorou mal dve deti. Hubbard písal pre rôzne literárne časopisy vedeckofantastické, fantastické, detektívne, westernové a dobrodružné prózy, a to poviedky, romány a jeden scenár. Používal mnoho pseudonymov, bol veľmi známym autorom. Počas druhej svetovej vojny slúžil pri námorníctve u Office of Naval Intelligence.

V roku 1950 publikoval knihu Dianetika, moderna veda o duševnom zdraví , v ktorej opísal vlastnú psychologickú teóriu, nazývanú dianetika. Táto kniha sa aj napriek odmietnutiu odbornou verejnosťou široko rozšírila a stala sa bestsellerom, len za rok po vydaní sa predalo 150 000 výtlačkov. Registroval taktiež spolok Hubbard Dianetic Research Foundation .

V roku 1952 rozšíril Hubbard dianetiku o „užitú náboženskú filozofiu“, ktorú nazval scientológia. V tomto roku si taktiež vzal svoju poslednú manželku, Mary Sue Whippovú. Až do konca života stál v čele scientologickej cirkvi. V roku 1957 napísal knihu "Všetko o radiácii" , v nej propaguje tzv. purifikačný program, ktorý očisťuje telesné bunky od jedov. V osemdesiatych rokoch sa Hubbard vrátil k literárnej činnosti, vytvoril sci-fi romány so scientologickým posolstvom Battlefield Earth a Mission Earth , a taktiež nepublikovaný scenár Revolt in the Stars , v ňom zdramatizoval časť dianetického postupu. 24. januára 1986 zomrel na svojom ranči, údajne na mŕtvicu.

Bol veľmi plodným autorom. Len vydanie jeho rukopisných poznámok, prepísaných až po jeho smrti, je napísaných na 110 obsiahlych zväzkoch. Väčšinu diel napísal v rokoch 1930 – 1980 a väčšina jeho diel bola publikovaná v nakladateľstvách, spojených so scientologickou cirkvou. V roku 2006 bol uznaný Guinnessovou knihou rekordov za najplodnejšieho a najprekladanejšieho autora s údajom, že publikoval 1084 beletristických i nebeletristických diel, ktoré boli preložené do 71 jazykov.

Dianetics And Scientology Technical Dictionary (1975); 1987 edition, p. 370.

“You don't get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion.”

The incident is stamped indelibly in my mind because of one statement that Ron Hubbard made. What led him to say what he did I can't recall — but in so many words Hubbard said: "I'd like to start a religion. That's where the money is!"
L. Ron Hubbard to Lloyd A. Eshbach, in 1949; as quoted by Eshbach in his autobiography Over My Shoulder: Reflections On A Science Fiction Era (1983) ISBN 1-880418-11-8 .
Y'know, we're all wasting our time writing this hack science fiction! You wanta make real money, you gotta start a religion!
As reported to Mike Jittlov by Theodore Sturgeon as a statement Hubbard made while at the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society clubhouse in the 1940s.
Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wanted to make a million dollars, the best way to do it would be start his own religion.
As quoted in the Los Angeles Times (27 August 1978)
Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion.
As quoted in the article "Scientology: Anatomy of a Frightening Cult" by Eugene H. Methvin. Reader's Digest (May 1980).

Sam Merwin, Editor of Thrilling Science Fiction magazine Winter of 1946-47; quoted in Bare-Faced Messiah, The True Story of L. Ron Hubbard (1987) by Russell Miller
Whenever he was talking about being hard up he often used to say that he thought the easiest way to make money would be to start a religion.
Neison Himmel, briefly a roommate of Hubbard in Pasadena during the fall of 1945, in a 1986 interview, quoted in Bare-Faced Messiah, The True Story of L. Ron Hubbard (1987) by Russell Miller.

“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.”

Lecture: "Off the Time Track" (June 1952) as quoted in Journal of Scientology issue 18-G, reprinted in Technical Volumes of Dianetics & Scientology Vol. 1, p. 418.

“Ideas and not battles mark the forward progress of mankind.”

L. Ron Hubbard kniha Science of Survival

Science of Survival (1951)
Kontext: Ideas and not battles mark the forward progress of mankind. Individuals, and not masses, form the culture of the race.

“Oh yes! The one man in the world who never believes he's mad is the madman.”

In answer to the question as to whether he ever thought he might be quite mad. Granada Television documentary on Scientology http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_w-YWwC1lI#t=1503.

“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.”

A letter to his wife Polly (October 1938) http://bernie.cncfamily.com/sc/excalibur.htm, quoted in Bare-faced Messiah: The True Story of L. Ron Hubbard (1987), p. 81 http://www.discord.org/~lippard/bfm/bfm05.htm#81.
Kontext: Living is a pretty grim joke, but a joke just the same. 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. I turned the thing up so it's up to me to survive in a big way... Foolishly perhaps, but determined none the less, 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.

“The subject of philosophy is very ancient. The word means: "The love, study or pursuit of wisdom, or of knowledge of things and their causes, whether theoretical or practical."”

All we know of science or of religion comes from philosophy. It lies behind and above all other knowledge we have or use.
My Philosophy (1965) http://www.foundingchurchdc.org/dc/ref/philo/index.htm.

“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.
Philadelphia Doctorate Courses, lecture 24 (1952).
