Mark Twain

Mark Twain

You perceive, now, that these things are all impossible except in a dream.

The dream-marks are all present you should have recognized them earlier.

Mark Twain
Heaven is by favor if it were by merit your dog would go in and you would stay out. Of all the creatures ever made (man) is the most detestable. Of the entire brood, he is the only one... that possesses malice. He is the only creature that inflicts pain for sport, knowing it to be pain.
Mark Twain
Life becomes fully understandable only the moment we realise that we are all mad.
Mark Twain
I simply can't resist a cat, particularly a purring one.
Mark Twain

Mark Twain
If you're looking for friends when you need them...it's too late.
Mark Twain

Mark Twain
The ordinary chestnut can beget a sickly and reluctant laugh, but it takes a horse chestnut to fetch the gorgeous big horse-laugh.
Mark Twain
If true, rarely beautiful. If beautiful, rarely true.
Mark Twain
I always take Scotch whiskey at night as a preventive of toothache. I have never had the toothache and what is more, I never intend to have it.
Mark Twain
It is so unsatisfactory to read a noble passage and have no one you love at hand to share the happiness with you. And it is unsatisfactory to read to one's self anyhow - for the uttered voice so heightens the expression.
Mark Twain
If horses knew their strength we should not ride anymore.
Mark Twain
Start it at no particular time of your life wander at your free will all over your life talk only about the thing which interests you for the moment drop it the moment its interest threatens to pale.
Mark Twain
