Considering Gone With the Wind is listed as highest grossing, I'm assuming this is already adjusted for inflation.

I was totally looking for Ecclesiastes, and am quite disappointed that it appears to be missing. So much beautiful poetry in that book.

I guess not everyone shares my interest in Psalms. Those verses vibe real hard.

Ah, I didn't see that. That does change the tenor of the post.

Yeah it’s not a real Biblical quote though… at best it’s a paraphrased compilation of several different verses.

Yeahh I know, but still, it’s a great quote, and it’s heavily Bible inspired at the very least.

Yeah Psalm 23 is conspicuously missing, if the source is movies/TV/music; if the source is more news/commentary, then I’d expect Psalm 139 would make the list.

I had to write the Book of Job in it’s entirety as punishment in my catholic elementary school.
I was a mischievous kid so I wrote it a lot.
Can’t quote it to save my life but I remember the gist of the story better than anything else in that book lol

It was rewritten and extended by Tarantino.
Here the actual verse: >I will carry out great vengeance on them and punish them in my wrath. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I take vengeance on them

OP linked a tweet of this graphic with such a message, which they promptly deleted.

Did OP anywhere assert that it represents something for all of Russia versus all of China?

I’ve also heard that the words for ‘camel’ and ‘rope’ are very similar, in both Greek and Aramaic; so it’s a pun, and a clever bilingual one at that.
Also, hyperbole was a big part of Jesus’ speaking style (eg “if your right hand offends you, cut it off” - Matt 5:30)

Ha, if there was going to be a verse from Ezekiel, I would have guessed 23:20 (“she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys, and whose emission was like that of horses”)

Heilongjiang (along with Jilin and Liaoning) is in demographic decline far faster than anywhere else in China or most of the world for that matter, owing to stagnation relative to other regions of China following the opening and reform.
