Mark Twain II

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform (or pause and reflect).

The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read.

Never put off till tomorrow what may be done day after tomorrow just as well.

I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.

′Classic′ - a book which people praise and don't read.

A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.

Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.

Substitute 'damn' every time you're inclined to write 'very;' your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.

Don’t go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.
