I've been reading one of the books I got at the library today, and discovered the most amazing quote:
Everyone is looking for something to believe in. You just have to find out what it is they're looking for.
Sooo, do you believe in hope? Believe in Jesus? Believe in happy-ever-after-endings? Believe the world is going to end tomorrow? Are you cynical or optimistic? Believe in the good in humans? Believe in the evil in humans?
This line of questioning could go on FOR--EVER. I mean, truly, do YOU know what you believe in? Do you know what you DO NOT believe in?
Well, ladies & gents, I don't believe in the power to manipulate others, I absolutely KNOW it. How?
Who was the person responsible for this quote? No other than the infamous Charles Manson. He could have spoken for the advertising media, the so-called religious/preachers, politicians/politics, popular fiction writers, etc. ad nauseaum. For people are vulnerable, IF you know what that vulnerability is: What they want/need to believe in.
Soon I'll reveal the title of the book I found this quote in -- which I'd never seen before.
