Mark Twain

Mark Twain

Mark Twain
God puts something good and loveable in every man His hands create.
Mark Twain
People are much more willing to lend you books than bookcases.
Mark Twain
Let your joy be unconfined!
Mark Twain
What work I have done I have done because it has been play. If it had been work I shouldn't have done it.
Mark Twain
Don't you know that the very thing a man dreads is the thing that always happens?
Mark Twain
I begin to see that a man's got to be in his own heaven to be happy.
Mark Twain
The proverb says that Providence protects children and idiots. This is really true. I know because I have tested it.
Mark Twain
Hain't we got all the fools in town on our side? And hain't that a big enough majority in any town?
Mark Twain
In early times some sufferer had to sit up with a toothache, and he put in the time inventing the German language.
Mark Twain
