More from Mark Twain
"Man is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself and cuts his throat if his theology isn't satisfactory."
"What a wee little part of a person's life are his acts and his words! His real life is led in his head, and is known to none but himself."
"It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt."
"I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious."
"When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years."
About Mark Twain (1835-1910)
American humorist and inventor of the American vernacular novel; author of Huckleberry Finn (1884) and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Closely associated with William Dean Howells (his close friend, editor, and 'Dean of American Letters') and Bret Harte (early collaborator on Western frontier humor). For an intellectual contrast, see Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the Christian Science movement — Twain's Christian Science (1907) is a 200-page sustained polemic against Eddy's claims of supernatural healing — the longest sustained attack of his career.
