A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
Mark Twain

After a day at the races in England, a friend told Mark Twain, “I wish you’d buy me a ticket back to London. I’m broke.”

Twain told him he couldn’t afford two tickets but proposed that his friend sneak aboard the train and hide under Twain’s seat. Then he bought two tickets as usual.

When the train had got under way, the inspector appeared to collect Twain’s ticket. When Twain gave him two, he looked about the compartment and said, “Where’s the other one?”

Twain pointed under his seat, smiled, and said, “My friend is a little eccentric.”

I’ve lived through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened.

The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who cannot read them.

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

Let us live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.
