Mark Twain

Talking about quotes from Mark Twain, here are a few that I like for now (haven't read enough to conclude yet) -

"Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint."
~ Applies to all "information" indeed.

"I have never let my schooling interfere with my education."
~ Parents and certificate pursuers, pls note this. I implemented this when I was at college... hehe

"Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear."
~ Recalled a similar conversation with b that EQ is not a blind positiveness on everything, but the massaged mental quality to manage opportunities and less-favourables.

"Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first."
~ Though this may over-simplify the situation, it's a fact somehow.

"Adam and Eve had many advantages, but the principle one was that they escaped teething."
~ ha... teeth's teething? or the teething of the very complicated relationships...?

"IT IS MY BELIEF THAT NEARLY ANY INVENTED QUOTATION, PLAYED WITH CONFIDENCE, STANDS A GOOD CHANCE TO DECEIVE."
~ aarrr...!!!!!
