Quotations by Mark Twain VIII



October. This is one of the peculiarly dangerous months to speculate in stocks in. The others are July, January, September, April, November, May, March, June, December, August, and February.


All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then Success is sure.


Let us be thankful for the fools. But for them the rest of us could not succeed.


There's always something about your success that displeases even your best friends.


To be good is noble, but to teach others how to be good is nobler and less trouble.


There was never a century nor a country that was short of experts who knew the Deity's mind and were willing to reveal it.


A joke, even if it be a lame one, is nowhere so keenly relished or quickly applauded as in a murder trial.


There are no grades of vanity, there are only grades of ability in concealing it.


Be virtuous and you will be eccentric
