One hundred years ago today, Mark Twain (aka Samuel Langhorn Clemens) died at the age of 75. Here is a sampling of some my favorite Mark Twain quotes:
- A person who won't read has no advantage over one who can't read.
- Man is the only animal that blushes - or needs to.
- Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
- 'Classic.' A book which people praise and don't read.
- Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.
- I have been complimented many times and they always embarrass me; I always feel that they have not said enough.
- Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.
