              Don't know jack about Brigham Young, but his quote sounds like something Marcus Aurelius would have written.

              "He who takes offense when no offense is intended is a fool, and he who takes offense when offense is intended is a greater fool."

                            This is completely apolitical (as far as I am concerned anyway), but I read this last night and chuckled…

                            Capitalism is the exploitation of man by man.  Communism is the other way around......

                                          While we are on the subject of falsely attributed quotes, this is my favourite. I came across it in my studies recently and I find it both clever and accurate.
