More from Mark Twain
"One should never use exclamation points in writing. It is like laughing at your own joke."
"Most people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do."
"Loyalty to country ALWAYS. Loyalty to government, when it deserves it."
"The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time."
"The church is always trying to get money, and always trying to be popular, and always doing both things very badly."
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.
