More from Mark Twain
"What a wee little part of a person's life are his acts and his words! His real life is led in his head, and is known to none but himself."
"All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure."
"Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect."
"Adam and Eve had many advantages, but the principle one was that they escaped teething."
"The human being is a machine. An automatic machine. It does not reason. It merely acts upon the impulse of the moment."
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.
