A classic is something that everybody wants to have read and nobody has read. A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes. A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval. Advertisements contain the only truths to be relied on in a newspaper. All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure. Always acknowledge a fault. This will throw those in authority off their guard and give you an opportunity to commit more. Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest. Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint. Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.

Mark Twain Quotes Always tell the truth; then you don't have to remember anything. When in doubt, tell the truth. Truth is more of a stranger than fiction. Why shouldn't truth be stranger than fiction? Fiction after all, has to make sense. A good lie will have travled half way around the world while the truth is putting on her boots. There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics. You take the lies out of him, and he'll shrink to the size of your hat; you take the malice out of him, and he'll disappear. I was gratified to be able to answer promptly, and I did. I said I didn't know. Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, ... it doesn't matter. A powerful agent is the right word. Whenever we come upon one of those intensely right words in a book or a newspaper the resulting effect is physical as well as spiritual, and electrically prompt. The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause. Thunder is good, thunder is impressive, but it is lightning that does the work. When one has tasted watermelon he knows what the angels eat.

FRtR Outlines American Literature The Rise of Realism: 1860-1914: Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) (1835-1910) An Outline of American Literature by Kathryn VanSpanckeren The Rise of Realism: 1860-1914: Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) (1835-1910) Index Samuel Clemens, better known by his pen name of Mark Twain, grew up in the Mississippi River frontier town of Hannibal, Missouri. Ernest Hemingway's famous statement that all of American literature comes from one great book, Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn , indicates this author's towering place in the tradition. Early 19th-century American writers tended to be too flowery, sentimental, or ostentatious partially because they were still trying to prove that they could write as elegantly as the English. Twain's style, based on vigorous, realistic, colloquial American speech, gave American writers a new appreciation of their national voice. Twain was the first major author to come from the interior of the country, and he captured its distinctive, humorous slang and iconoclasm. For Twain and other American writers of the late 19th century, realism was not merely a literary technique: It was a way of speaking truth and exploding worn-out conventions. Thus it was profoundly liberating and potentially at odds with society. The most well-known example is Huck Finn, a poor boy who decides to follow the voice of his conscience and help a Negro slave escape to freedom, even though Huck thinks this means that he will be damned to hell for breaking the law.

39. Mark Twain BACK to the Great Freethinkers. Mark Twain. (18351910). By Punkerslut. Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to. Adam http://www.punkerslut.com/articles/marktwain.html

Main Books Essays Critiques ... [BACK to the Great Freethinkers.] Mark Twain By Punkerslut His real name was Samuel Clemens, but he took on the pen name of Mark Twain. Towards the end of his life, Twain held a bitter detestment of religion. His animosity towards Christianity was seething. In his book Christian Science (1907), he attacked the new religion of Mary Baker Eddy; the work was considered sacrilegious. Clemens' book Letters from Earth was suppressed by his daughter and several publishers due to the fact that it was anticlerical. It was not published until 1962, over half a century after Clemens' death. He called the Mormon Bible "an insiped mess of inspiration. It is chloroform in print." (Resource: Who's Who In Hell , by Warren Allen Smith.) Although Huclkeberry Finn and Tom Sawyer were some of his more popular works, many of his antireligious works include, From Adam's Diary From Eve's Diary (1906), and Captain Stormfield's Visit to Heaven (1909). In one of his essays, "Bible Teaching and Religious Practice," he wrote... The Christian Bible is a drug store. Its contents remain the same; but the medical practice changes. For eighteen hundred years these changes were slight scarcely noticeable. The practice was allopathic allopathic in its rudest and crudest form. The dull and ignorant physician day and night, and all the days and all the nights, drenched his patient with vast and hideous doses of the most repulsive drugs to be found in the store's stock; he bled him, cupped him, purged him, puked him, salivated him, never gave his system a chance to rally, nor nature a chance to help. He kept him religion sick for eighteen centuries, and allowed him not a well day during all that time. The stock in the store was made up of about equal portions of baleful and debilitating poisons, and healing and comforting medicines; but the practice of the time confined the physician to the use of the former; by consequence, he could only damage his patient, and that is what he did.

Mark Twain P La célebre rana saltarina del condado de las Calaveras ", adquirieron una enorme fama en todo el país. En 1867, pronunció conferencias en Nueva York y visitó Europa y Tierra Santa. Escribió sobre estos viajes en Los inocentes en el extranjero (1869), un libro en el que se burlaba de los aspectos del Viejo Continente que solían deslumbrar a los turistas estadounidenses. En 1870 se casó con Olivia Langdon y, tras una breve estancia en Buffalo (Nueva York), la pareja se estableció en Hartford (Connecticut). Entre esta ciudad y Quarry Farm, Nueva York, escribió gran parte de sus mejores obras en las décadas 1870 y 1880. Una vida dura (1872) rememora sus experiencias como periodista y buscador de oro, mientras Las aventuras de Tom Sawyer (1876) describe la infancia en un pueblo a orillas del Mississippi. Un vagabundo en el extranjero (1880) narra un viaje a pie entre la Selva Negra, en Alemania, y los Alpes suizos. Príncipe y mendigo (1882), un libro juvenil, basa su trama argumental en el intercambio de identidades en la Inglaterra de los Tudor. Vida en el Mississippi (1883) combina el recuento autobiográfico de sus experiencias como piloto de barco con una visita al Mississippi veinte años después.
