"The trouble is not in dying for a friend, but in finding a friend worth dying for."
"No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session."
"Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress; but I repeat myself."
"I would rather have my ignorance than another man's knowledge, because I have so much more of it."
"The human race is a joke. We are the only beings on this planet that have developed a sense of humor, and yet we are the only ones who take ourselves seriously."
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.
