1 " Come Judgment Day, we may find that Mumbo Jumbo the God of the Congo was the Big Boss all along. "
― Robert A. Heinlein , Stranger in a Strange Land
2 " It's cloaked in cultural mumbo jumbo, but I assure you that it is very hard science. "
― Jonathan Maberry , Dead of Night (Dead of Night, #1)
3 " Let us not still our anger against indifference and inattention and let us not glitziness, superciliousness and mumbo jumbo slither into our thinking and our actions, if we don’t want our conscience to be backfired on. (“Twilight of desire”) "
― Erik Pevernagie
4 " Being a monk was the strangest and most perverted way of life imaginable. Monks spent half their lives putting themselves through pain and discomfort that they could easily avoid, and the other half muttering meaningless mumbo jumbo in empty churches at all hours of the day and night. They deliberately shunned anything good—girls, sports, feasting and family life. "
― Ken Follett , The Pillars of the Earth (Kingsbridge, #1)
5 " I thought it was foolish mumbo jumbo when I was alive - then I woke up dead. "
― C.V. Hunt , Danse Macabre
6 " Most nightmares are caged in their realm by implausibilities. The sleeper slogs through quicksand in a fun house of frightening nonsense and disjointed mumbo jumbo. But everything’s all better once the bedside lamp is back on, because reality, even when it’s bad, is easily distinguished from night terror. Except for the trying-to-scream dream. That one’s pretty much spot-on. "
― Jamie Mason
