"Communism, like any other revealed religion, is largely made up of prophecies." ― H. L. Mencken Topic(s): Religion Tags: communism, other, revealed More From H. L. Mencken "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public." "Love is like war: easy to begin but very hard to stop." "The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." More In Religion "You have this mounting aggressive ignorance with the rabbit’s foot of their particular religion. You don’t really have any kind of spiritual law, just a kind of a rabid mental illness. The songs are a little slice of life."― Joni Mitchell "Personality is more important than beauty, but imagination is more important than both of them."― Laurette Taylor "I don’t feel the need for religion. But I went on a yoga retreat last year and I do believe slightly in the karma thing and just being good and true unto yourself. And I slightly believe that you can attract good and bad to you."― Imelda Staunton
