Importance
As in most other communist countries, the constitution was based on the 1936 Soviet Constitution (also known as Stalin Constitution) and thus served mostly as a propaganda tool, failing to regulate the main source of power - the communist party (Polish United Workers' Party in the case of Poland). See also the statute of the Polish United Workers' Party.

Famous quotes containing the word importance:
“When we can begin to take our failures nonseriously, it means we are ceasing to be afraid of them. It is of immense importance to learn to laugh at ourselves.”
—Katherine Mansfield (1888–1923)
“There is much to be said in favour of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community. By carefully chronicling the current events of contemporary life, it shows us of what very little importance such events really are. By invariably discussing the unnecessary, it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“A toothache, or a violent passion, is not necessarily diminished by our knowledge of its causes, its character, its importance or insignificance.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
