I never made a success of a lecture delivered in a church yet. People are afraid to laugh in a church. They can't be made to do it in any possible way.
Mark Twain

Mark Twain
Facts are stubborn, but statistics are more pliable.
Mark Twain
It may have happened, it may not have happened but it could have happened.
Mark Twain
There is no urge so great as for one man to edit another man's work.
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.
