Additional quotes by Mark Twain

James Ross Clemens, a cousin of mine, was seriously ill two or three weeks ago in London, but is well now. The report of my illness grew out of his illness; the report of my death was an exaggeration.

I apologize for such a long letter - I didn't have time to write a short one.

Do not put off till tomorrow what can be put off till day-after-tomorrow just as well.
