Someone recently pointed out how much Barack Obama’s style and strategies resemble those of Latin American charismatic despots - the takeover of industries by demagogues who never ran a business, the rousing rhetoric of resentment addressed to the masses and the personal cult of the leader promoted by the media. But do we want to become the world’s largest banana republic? Picture Quote #1

ÃÂžur music, it’s an acquired taste. It’s almost cult, even at our level. It can mean nothing to somebody and it can mean everything to somebody else Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that art, if it’s isolated and specialized, can really create culture. It needs a cult Picture Quote #1

I think that you can absolutely enjoy your artistic passion without seeking for the cult of celebrity Picture Quote #1

I can understand why some of these drummers and bass players become cult figures with all of their equipment and the incredible amount of technique they have. But there’s very little that I think satisfies you intellectually or emotionally Picture Quote #1

I’m certainly not a person who spends their every waking moment soaking themselves in signs and signals of the sort that cult studies people study; and it’s partly, I suppose, because some of those signs and signals aren’t worth bothering about. You have to be selective about these things Picture Quote #1

The ivory tower of the artist may be the only stronghold left for human values, cultural treasures, man’s cult of beauty Picture Quote #1

I set out to do a horror film with ‘Dog Soldiers,’ and what I came out with at the end of the day was something that was more of a cult movie, more of a black comedy with some horror elements in it. It kind of went over the top Picture Quote #1

I was desperately unhappy with it [Blade Runner]. I was compelled by contract to record five or six different versions of the narration, each of which was found wanting on a storytelling basis. The final version was something that I was completely unhappy with. The movie obviously has a very strong following, but it could have been more than a cult picture Picture Quote #1

It does make a broader point which is the fight against Islamist terror is not just one that we can wage by the police and border control, it needs every school, every university, every college, every community to recognize they have a role to play, we all have a role to play in stopping people from having their minds poisoned by this appalling death cult Picture Quote #1

Political prodigies are rare in a nation that grooms top leaders through decades of Communist Party road-testing and pageantry. And because Chairman Mao’s cult of personality led the country into extremism, the Party spent the next three decades engineering its politicians to be as indistinguishable as possible Picture Quote #1

I don’t think it takes much for a cult to be a cult. Many parts of our society are cultish, and you only need a charismatic leader and some teachings, and before you know it, you have a cult Picture Quote #1

First Light’ has gotten a reputation as a kind of cult classic about science. I never really intended it to be read as a science book, but books, like children, have a way of choosing their own friends Picture Quote #1

Typically cult groups target universities and colleges. Most likely those schools that maintain campus housing Picture Quote #1

The cult of the individual is killing us. I think Twitter signals the death of western civilisation, but people have been saying that since Demosthenes Picture Quote #1

The difference between a cult and a religion is one outlasts its leader Picture Quote #1

I have often thought that the difference between a cult and a religion is an IRS ruling Picture Quote #1
