There are only two sorts of people in life you can trust --

Summary

This quote suggests that the speaker believes there are only two types of individuals who can be trusted: those who adhere to Christianity and those who follow the principles of communism. It simplifies the idea of trustworthiness by categorizing people based on their religious or political beliefs. By using this statement, the speaker seems to imply that one's trustworthiness depends solely on their association with these particular ideologies, overlooking other qualities that might contribute to a person's character or reliability.
