"I have a great many things to say, but I don't know how to say them."
"The very first thing which a man has to do, in order to learn how to do a thing, is to learn how to unlearn it."
"I am a person who has always been very much in favor of doing what is right, and I have always been very much against doing what is wrong."
"Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint."
"I wish to make a doctrine that I shall call the Law of Periodical Repetition. It will be this: The human race is a repetition, a repetition, a repetition."
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.
