.Mark twain famous quotes.

Lies, damned lies, and statistics

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.

The report of my death was an exaggeration.

Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.

Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please.

Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.

All right, then, I'll go to hell.
