Mark Twain

Mark Twain
That is just the way with some people. They get down on a thing when they don’t know nothing about it.
Mark Twain
There ought to be a room in every house to swear in. It's dangerous to have to repress an emotion like that.
Mark Twain
Optimist: day-dreamer in his small clothes.
