More from Mark Twain
"There is no humor in heaven."
"I don't have a bank account, because I don't know my mother's maiden name."
"I am an atheist, and I am not afraid to say it."
"I can live for two months on a good compliment."
"I have a temper, but I have learned to control it. My temper is like a dog that I have trained to lie down when I tell it to."
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.
