Famous Mark Twain Quotes"Always tell the truth; then you don't have to remember anything.”"We are always too busy for our children; we never give them the time or interest they deserve. We lavish gifts upon them; but the most precious gift, our personal association, which means so much to them, we give grudgingly.""Anyone who can only think of one way to spell a word obviously lacks imagination." "Heaven for climate. Hell for company.""The man who does not read books has no advantage over the man that can not read them.""Love your enemy, it will scare the hell out of them.""It is best to keep your mouth shut and be presumed ignorant than to open it and remove all doubt.""Good breeding consists in concealing how much we think of ourselves and how little we think of the other person.""It is not best that we should all think alike; it is differences of opinion that make horse races.""When people do not respect us we are sharply offended; yet deep down in his private heart no man much respects himself.""I have made it a rule never to smoke more than one cigar at a time. "If there are no cigars in Heaven, I shall not go."I am opposed to millionaires, but it would be dangerous to offer me the position." "When angry, count to four; when very angry, swear.”"The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not.""Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it.""Don't let school interfere with your education.""Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform. "" If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man.""If God had meant for us to be naked, we'd have been born that way.""Golf is a good walk spoiled.""A good lie will have traveled half way around the world while the truth is putting on her boots.""Always tell the truth; then you don't have to remember anything.”"When in doubt, tell the truth.”。

The brief history of Mark TwainSamuel Langhorne Clemens, better known as the author Mark Twain, was born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri. His parents, John and Jane Clemens, moved their family to Hannibal, Missouri, in 1839, four years after Samuel was born. Living in Hannibal, a port along the Mississippi River, Clemens developed a sort of bond with the river and as a child aspired to one day be a steamboat pilot.After his father's death in 1847, Clemens began an apprenticeship with Joseph Ament, publisher of the Missouri Courier, and by age 16 he worked as a printer and contributed his first published sketches for his brother Orion's Hannibal Western Union where he worked for the next two years. After this, Clemens went on to work as a printer in several other cities including Philadelphia and New York City. In 1857 Clemens began working as a cub pilot on Mississippi River steamboats and received his steamboat pilot license in 1859. For the next two years Twain worked as a steamboat pilot until 1861 when the American Civil was put a stop to travel on the river. Clemens volunteered in the Confederate calvary for a very brief period of time. Samuel joined his brother Orion that same year, and headed out west to the Nevada territory where he mined for silver. In 1862, he began working as a reporter for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise in Nevada. It was in 1863 that Samuel Clemens began using the pen name Mark Twain. The name was a phrased used on the steamboats of the Mississippi River which meant "two fathoms deep." From Nevada, Clemens moved on to San Francisco, California, where he wrote for San Francisco newspapers. He also worked in mines at Angel's Camp, California, where heard the tale that inspired his short story "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County." In 1866, Clemens gave his first lecture about the Sandwich islands. After this he began a lecture tour throughout California and Nevada and went on to give lectures in New York City during the next year.From June to November of 1867, Clemens sailed on a ship called the Quaker City to Europe and the Mideast. He writes of his travels in his book The Innocents Abroad. After arriving back in the United States, he moved to Washington, D.C., to become the private secretary to Senator William Stewart. During this time he also traveled and gave lectures in California and Nevada. In 1868, Twain became engaged to Olivia Langdon, and in 1870 they married in Elmira, New York. The couple lived in Buffalo, New York, where Clemens worked as an editor and writer for the Buffalo Express. Shortly after the couple moved to Hartford, Connecticut, where Clemens wrote most of his best work. In 1872, Clemens published his book Roughing It, the tale of his life as a miner and journalist in Nevada and California. This same year his daughter Susy Clemens was born. Clemens also traveled and gave lectures in England where he met writers such as Robert Browning and Lewis Caroll. In 1874 his second Daughter, Clara Clemens, was born. Tom Sawyer, one of Twain's most recognized works, was published in 1876. For the next few years Clemens traveled in Europe with his family. He and his family returned to Hartford in 1879, and in 1880 his daughter Jean was born. A Tramp Abroad, which describes his trip through the Black Forest of Germany and the Swiss Alps, was published in 1880. A year later The Prince and the Pauper was published. Clemens wrote about his life as a steamboat pilot in Life on the Mississippi which was published in 1883. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, considered to be Twain's masterpiece, was published in 1884, the same year he formed Charles L. Webster and Company to publish works of his own as well as other writers. The company went bankrupt in 1894 due to a bad investment in an automatic typesetting machine.With the death of his wife and two daughters, Twain's work grew more and more pessimistic. During the 1890s and the 1900s he wrote Pudd'nhead Wilson, Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc, The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg, and The War Prayer. He also wrote several essays and began writing The Mysterious Stranger and an autobiography which were never completed. Before he died Twain received an honorary doctorate from Oxford University. Although most of Twain's contemporariesonly recognized him as a humorist, Twain is given credit today for transforming American literature into something purely American by his original use of language, setting, and colorful American characters.。

Me, sir?RODERICK:Yes, you.OLIVER:Through the front door on your left.HENRY:(a servant opens a door) Thanks.SERVANT:Good morning, sir, would you please come in? Permit me to lead the way, sir.

It’s my first trip here.RODERICK:I wonder, Mr Adams, if you’d mind us asking a few questions.HENRY:Not at all. Go right ahead.RODERICK:May we ask what you’re doing in this country and what your plans are?HENRY:Well, I can’t say that I have any plans. I’m hoping to find work. As a matter of fact, I land ed in Britain by accident.OLIVER:How is that possible?HENRY:Well, you see, back home I had my own boat. About a month ago I was sail ing out of the bay…(his eyes stare at what is left of the brother’s dinner on the table)RODERICK:Well, go on.HENRY:Oh, yes. Well, towards nightfall I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind. It was all my fault. I did not know whether I could survive until morning. The nextmorning I’d just about given myself up for lost when I was spot ted by a ship. OLIVER:And it was the ship that brought you to England.HENRY:Yes. The fact is that I earn ed my passage by working as an unpaid hand, which account s for my appearance. I went to the American embassy to seek help, but…(the brothers smile at each other)RODERICK:Well, you mustn’t worry about that. It’s an advantage.HENRY:I’m afraid I don’t quite follow you, sir.RODERICK:Tell us, Mr Adams, what sort of work did you do in America?HENRY:I worked for a mining company. Could you offer me some kind of work here? RODERICK:Patience, Mr Adams. If you don’t mind, may I ask you how much money you have? HENRY:Well, to be honest, I have none.OLIVER:(happily) What luck! Brother, what luck! (clap s his hands together)HENRY:Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me. On the contrary, in fact. If this is your idea of some kind of joke, I don’t think it’s very funny. (Henry stands up to leave)Now, if you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll be on my way.RODERICK:Please don’t go, Mr Adams. You mustn’t think we don’t care about you. Oliver, give him the letter.OLIVER:Yes, the letter. (gets it from a desk and gives it to Henry like a gift) The letter. HENRY:(taking it carefully) For me?RODERICK:For you.

(calls to the servant) James.HENRY:Oh, no, I don’t want your charity. I just want an honest job.RODERICK:We know you’re hard-working. That’s why we’ve given you the letter. James, show Mr Adams out.OLIVER:Good luck, Mr Adams.HENRY:Well, why don’t you explain what this is all about?RODERICK:You’ll soon know. (looks at the clock) In exactly an hour and a half.SERVANT:This way, sir.RODERICK:Mr Adams, not until 2 o’clock. Promise?HENRY:Promise.
