More from Mark Twain
"I am not an optimist. I am a realist. I believe in the triumph of good over evil. But I don't believe in the triumph of good over evil without a fight."
"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read."
"I have been told that Wagner's music is better than it sounds."
"Nothing so needs reforming more than other people's habits."
"I was sorry to have my name mentioned as one of the great authors, because they have a hell of a time in heaven."
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.
