More from Mark Twain
"Good breeding consists in concealing how much we think of ourselves and how little we think of the other person."
"There are several good protections against temptation, but the surest is cowardice."
"Faith is believing what you know ain't so."
"Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most."
"The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time."
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.
