More quotes by Mark Twain
There is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a dream, a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought -a vagrant thought, a useless thought, a homeless thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities!
Mark Twain
I never write metropolis for seven cents when I can write city and get paid the same.
Mark Twain
There is a sumptuous variety about the New England weather... In the spring I have counted one hundred and twenty-six different kinds of weather inside of four and twenty hours.
Mark Twain
The average man don't like trouble and danger.
Mark Twain
God rewards gamblers and fools. The crucial thing, when you win, is knowing which you were.
Mark Twain
You need not expect to get your book right the first time. Go to work and revamp or rewrite it. God only exhibits his thunder and lightning at intervals, and so they always command attention. These are God's adjectives. You thunder and lightning too much the reader ceases to get under the bed, by and by.
Mark Twain
Music is a good thing and after all that soul-butter and hogwash, I never see it freshen up things so, and sound so honest and bully.
Mark Twain
Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.
Mark Twain
Twenty-four years ago I was strangely handsome in San Francisco in the rainy season I was often mistaken for fair weather.
Mark Twain
There are too many stars in some places and not enough in others.
Mark Twain
If I were going to construct a God I would furnish him with some ways and qualities and characteristics which the Present One lacks... He would spend some of His eternities in trying to forgive Himself for making man unhappy when He could have made him happy with the same effort and He would spend the rest of them in studying astronomy.
Mark Twain
Experience comes from bad judgment.
Mark Twain
Delicacy - a sad, sad false delicacy - robs literature of the two best things among its belongings: Family-circle narratives & obscene stories.
Mark Twain
A sincere compliment is always grateful to a lady, so long as you don't try to knock her down with it.
Mark Twain
I don't believe any of you have ever read Paradise Lost, and you don't want to. That's something that you just want to take on trust. It's a classic ... something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read.
Mark Twain
Cats are the wildest of the tame and the tamest of the wild
Mark Twain
I was a-trembling, because I'd got to decide, forever, betwixt two things, and I knowed it.
Mark Twain
Worrying is paying interest on a debt you might not even owe.
Mark Twain
It is the will of God that we must have critics, and missionaries, and Congressmen, and humorists, and we must bear the burden. Meantime, I seem to have been drifting into criticism myself. But that is nothing. At the worst, criticism is nothing more than a crime, and I am not unused to that.
Mark Twain
There is only one good sex. The female one.
