"It's not the size of the dog..." - Quote by Mark Twain

“If you must be indiscrete, be discrete in your indiscretion.”

“I have stopped smoking now and then, for a few months at a time, but it was not on principle, it was only to show off; it was to pulverize those critics who said I was a slave to my habits and couldn't break my bonds.”

“Writing is the easiest thing in the world.... Just try it sometime. I sit up with a pipe in my mouth and a board on my knees and I scribble away.”

“I may not be as stong as I think, but I know many tricks and I have resolution.”

“The true test of a character is to face hard conditions with the determination to make them better.”

“We need a backbone, not a wishbone.”

“He divines remedies against injuries; he knows how to turn serious accidents to his own advantage; whatever does not kill him makes him stronger”

“How many times can a man go down and still be alive?”

“To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man's injustice to woman. If by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman less brute than man. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior.”
