"I have found that the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it."
"I was sorry to have my name mentioned as one of the great authors, because they have a hell of a time in heaven."
"I have opinions of my own — strong opinions — but I don't always agree with them."

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.
