Scientology, a New Slant on Life Quotes

“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. You looked at flowers and they were very beautiful flowers. Twenty-five years later, you get up in the morning, you take a look at the flowers - they are wilted. The day isn't a happy day. Well, what's changed? You know they are the same flowers, it's the same world. Something must have changed. Well, probably it was you.”

“I like to help others and count it as my greatest pleasure in life to see a person free himself of the shadows which darken his days.

And I am afraid I am just as delighted as he is.”
