"There is nothing so annoying as to have two people go right on talking when you're interrupting."
"Sanity and happiness are an impossible combination."

"I was sorry to have to tell him that I had never heard of him. He was a very pleasant man, and I wished him well."
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.
