"I have no race prejudices,and I think I have no color prejudices or caste prejudices. Indeed I know it. I can stand any society. All I care to know is that a man is a human being-that is enough for me;he can't be any worse."
"I would rather have my ignorance than another man's knowledge,because I have so much more of it."
"Never waste a lie, you never know when you may need it."
"Man...is kind enough when he is not excited by religion."
"Man-he is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself, and cuts his throat if his theology isn't straight."
On politicians: "Its hard to find men of a so high type of morals,that they'll STAY bought."
Old age: When mark Twain was a young man,he got into an argument about the purpose of life with an old man. The old fellow,failing to prevail in the debate,fell upon the venerable authority of age.
"Young man, look at these gray hairs,he said." "When a man gets as old as you I think he ought to dye," replied Twain. Noting the old man's displeasure at this answer, Twain added: "You shouldn't think those gray hairs are any sign of wisdom; its only a sign that your system lacks iron. I advise you to go home and swallow a crowbar."
