April 1. This is the day upon which we are reminded of what we are on the other three hundred and sixty-four.
Mark Twain
We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it and stop there lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove lid again and that is well but also she will never sit down on a cold one anymore.
Mark Twain
An ecstasy is a thing that will not go into words it feels like music.
Mark Twain

Mark Twain

Mark Twain
My mother had a great deal of trouble with me, but I think she enjoyed it.
Mark Twain
Be good and you'll be lonesome
Mark Twain
When your friends begin to flatter you on how young you look, it's a sure sign you're getting old.
Mark Twain
There are basically two types of people. People who accomplish things, and people who claim to have accomplished things. The first group is less crowded.
Mark Twain
There are no wild animals until man makes them so.
Mark Twain
A half-truth is the most cowardly of lies.
Mark Twain
An American has not seen the United States until he has seen Mardi-Gras in New Orleans.
