Additional quotes by Mark Twain

Humor is mankind's greatest blessing.

If I cannot swear in heaven I shall not stay there.

There is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a Dream, a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And You are but a Thought — a vagrant Thought, a useless Thought, a homeless Thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities.

To my mind, that literature is best and most enduring which is characterized by a noble simplicity. - Mark Twain
