More from Mark Twain
"The human race has only one really effective weapon, and that is laughter."
"I had a great deal of trouble with my wife, so I got married again."
"I did not attend his funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it."
"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience."
"Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter."
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.
