"If you tell the truth you do..." - Quote by Mark Twain

“Man is kind enough when he is not excited by religion”

“Men are like bank accounts. The more money, the more interest they generate.”

“I was sorry to have my name mentioned as one of the great authors, because they have a sad habit of dying off. Chaucer is dead, Spencer is dead, so is Milton, so is Shakespeare, and I’m not feeling so well myself.”

“Facing facts is always empowering.”

“Persuasion is achieved by the speaker's personal character when the speech is so spoken as to make us think him credible. We believe good men more fully and more readily than others: this is true generally whatever the question is, and absolutely true where exact certainty is impossible and opinions are divided.”

“It is always delightful when a great and beautiful idea proves to be consonant with reality.”

“Liberty is the right not to lie.”

“Trying to be witty leads to lying, more or less.”

“The best writing has no lace on its sleeves.”
