More quotes by Mark Twain
Man will do many things to get himself loved, he will do all things to get himself envied.
Mark Twain
Sum all the gifts that man is endowed with, and we give our greatest share of admiration to his energy. And today, if I were a heathen, I would rear a statue to Energy and fall down and worship it!
Mark Twain
It may have happened, it may not have happened but it could have happened.
Mark Twain
Life becomes fully understandable only the moment we realise that we are all mad.
Mark Twain
I have found out that there ain't no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them.
Mark Twain
It’s not the good that die young, it’s the lucky.
Mark Twain
in order to make a man or boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain.
Mark Twain
Well, no doubt it's a blessed thing to have an imagination that can always make you satisfied, no matter how you are fixed.
Mark Twain
Optimist: day dreamer more elegantly spelled.
Mark Twain
Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live. To live a fulfilled life, we need to keep creating the what is next, of our lives. Without dreams and goals there is no living, only merely existing, and that is not why we are here.
Mark Twain
Censorship is telling a man he can't have a steak just because a baby can't chew it.
Mark Twain
Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today.
Mark Twain
I like Joan of Arc best of all my books and it is the best I know it perfectly well.
Mark Twain
To get the right word in the right place is a rare achievement.
Mark Twain
It is better to be a young June-bug than an old bird of paradise.
Mark Twain
I am dead to adverbs they cannot excite me. To misplace an adverb is a thing which I am able to do with frozen indifference it can never give me a pang. There are subtleties which I cannot master at all - they confuse me, they mean absolutely nothing to me - and this adverb plague is one of them.
Mark Twain
It is my custom to keep on talking until I get the audience cowed.
Mark Twain
In all the ages, three-fourths of the support of the great charities has been conscience money.
Mark Twain
I heard a Californian student in Heidelberg say, in one of his calmest moods, that he would rather decline two drinks than one German adjective.
Mark Twain
Jane Austen's books, too, are absent from this library. Just that one omission alone would make a fairly good library out of a library that hadn't a book in it.
