Quote by H. L. Mencken
Say what you will about the Ten Commandments, you must always come back to the pleasant fact that there are only ten of them.
Summary
This quote highlights a lighthearted perspective on the Ten Commandments, which serves as a moral code in religious traditions such as Christianity and Judaism. The emphasis lies in finding comfort in the simplicity of having only ten commandments to follow, contrasting it to a potentially more exhaustive set of rules. By suggesting that regardless of one's opinion about the commandments themselves, the limited number brings a sense of relief from a potential burden of excessive rules and regulations.
