More quotes by Mark Twain
The more you join with people in their joys and their sorrows, the more nearer and dearer they come to be to you.
Mark Twain

Mark Twain
The kingly office is entitled to no respect. It was originally procured by the highwayman's methods. It remains a perpetuated crime, can never be anything but the symbol of a crime. It is no more entitled to respect than is the flag of a pirate.
Mark Twain
Change is the handmaiden Nature requires to do her miracles with.
Mark Twain

Mark Twain

Mark Twain
I will remark in the way of general information, that in California, that land of felicitous nomenclature, the literary name of this sort of stuff is hogwash
Mark Twain
You try to tell me anything about the newspaper business! Sir, I have been through it from Alpha to Omaha, and I tell you that the less a man knows the bigger the noise he makes and the higher the salary he commands.
Mark Twain
I've dealt with many crises in my life, but few will ever happen.
Mark Twain
If I can capture truth in its simplest form, beauty will follow like a sledgehammer.
Mark Twain
A sense of humor is the one thing no one will admit to not having.
Mark Twain
Those who do not read the news are uninformed. Those who do are misinformed.
Mark Twain
It is a good thing to write for the amusement of the public, but it is a far higher and nobler thing to write for their instruction, their profit, their actual and tangible benefit.
Mark Twain
