More quotes by Mark Twain
Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident the only earthly certainty is oblivion.
Mark Twain
Life should begin with age and its privileges and accumulations, and end with youth and its capacity to splendidly enjoy such advantages.
Mark Twain
Surely the ass who invented the first religion ought to be the first ass damned
Mark Twain
The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not.
Mark Twain
The government is merely a servant―merely a temporary servant it cannot be its prerogative to determine what is right and what is wrong, and decide who is a patriot and who isn't. Its function is to obey orders, not originate them.
Mark Twain
Armor is heavy, yet it is a proud burden, and a man standeth straight in it.
Mark Twain
God's great cosmic joke on the human race was requiring that men and women live together in marriage
Mark Twain
I like the truth sometimes, but I don't care enough for it to hanker after it.
Mark Twain
There are laws to protect the freedom of the press's speech, but none that are worth anything to protect the people from the press
Mark Twain
The Impartial Friend: Death, the only immortal who treats us all alike, whose pity and whose peace and whose refuge are for all--the soiled and the pure, the rich and the poor, the loved and the unloved.
Mark Twain
We like to read about rich people in the newspapers the papers know it, and they do their best to keep this appetite liberally fed.
Mark Twain
A lie can make it half way around the world before the truth has time to put its boots on.
Mark Twain
Grief can take care if itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with.
Mark Twain
There are things which some people never attempt during their whole lives, but one of these is not poetry. Poetry attacks all human beings sooner or later, and, like the measles, is mild or violent according to the age of the sufferer.
Mark Twain
At 50, a man can be an ass without being an optimist but not an optimist without being an ass
Mark Twain
The past does not repeat itself, but it rhymes.
Mark Twain
A person who has a cat by the tail knows a whole lot more about cats than someone who has just read about them.
Mark Twain
There are two times in a man's life when he should not speculate: when he can't afford it, and when he can.
Mark Twain
The highest pleasure to be got out of freedom, and having nothing to do, is labor.
Mark Twain
It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
Mark Twain
