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."
"Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter."
"The trouble with the world is not that people know too little, but that they know so many things that aren't so."
"I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened."
"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.
