Samuel Clemens, American literary treasure and original old man Muppet in the balcony, was born yesterday in 1835. In honor of his birthday, here are 25 snarky quotes from the master... enjoy!
A few of my favorites:
“All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure.” — Notebook (1887)
“It is just like man’s vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.” — What is Man?
“Everything human is pathetic. The secret source of humor itself is not joy but sorrow. There is no humor in heaven.” — Following the Equator
