"Surrounding such a personality we find cowed or ill associates or friends who, when not driven actually insane, are yet behaving in a crippled manner in life, failing, not succeeding.

[...] The largest number of insane are insane because of such anti-social connections and do not recover easily for the same reason."

"The criminal, the SP (same thing) is TRYING TO GET EVEN WITH PEOPLE. That's his common denominator. He does it by covert omissions or overt violence. It all amounts to the same thing."

— L. Ron Hubbard
Introduction to Scientology Ethics

"Orgs are in the very new, for this universe, business of setting people free. ¶ SPs will find all manner of reasons not to, for this is what they, with their own crimes, fear. ¶ Thus it follows that they cut dissem lines, corrupt tech, suppress and confuse orgs, persuade people to be inactive and resort to other shifts, all quite "reasonable" and "logical" as to why this must be the way it is."

The Business of Orgs

"A vital datum has emerged in my recent whole track research. ¶ IF ONE KNOWS THE TECH OF HOW TO DO SOMETHING AND CAN DO IT, AND USES IT, HE CANNOT BE THE ADVERSE EFFECT OF IT. [...] ¶ An SP confronted by someone who knows and can use all the tech concerning SPs would shatter."
