More from Mark Twain
"I have a perfectly trained conscience, and it is a great comfort to me. It never bothers me in any way."
"The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not."
"Sanity and happiness are an impossible combination."
"It takes a heap of sense to write good nonsense."
"I have no special regard for Satan; but, I can at least claim that I have no prejudice against him. It may even be that I lean a little his way, on account of his not having a fair show."
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.
