MARK TWAIN'S SPEECHES, by Mark Twain [MT#49][mtmts10.txt]3188

A little pride always goes along with a teaspoonful of brains

Ain't any real difference between triplets and an insurrection

Chastity, you can carry it too far

Classic: everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read

Don't know anything and can't do anything

Dwell on the particulars with senile rapture

Future great historian is lying--and doubtless will continue to

Head is full of history, and some of it is true, too

Humor enlivens and enlightens his morality

I shall never be as dead again as I was then

If can't make seventy by any but an uncomfortable road: don't go

Kill a lot of poets for writing about "Beautiful Spring"

Live upon the property of their heirs so long

Morality is all the better for his humor

Morals: rather teach them than practice them any day

Never been in jail, and the other is, I don't know why

Never to smoke when asleep, and never to refrain when awake

Patriotism is usually the refuge of the scoundrel

Please state what figure you hold him at--and return the basket

Principles is another name for prejudices

She bears our children--ours as a general thing

Some civilized women would lose half their charm without dress

The Essex band done the best it could

Time-expired man, to use Kipling's military phrase

To exaggerate is the only way I can approximate to the truth

Two kinds of Christian morals, one private and the other public

What, sir, would the people of the earth be without woman?

When in doubt, tell the truth

Women always want to know what is going on
