I'm in such a Mark Twain mood tonight. I'm reading some of his writings and he's just so spot on. Not only is he refreshingly eloquent but he also has this air of wit and sarcasm that you just don't come by anymore. I guess my love for Twain originated not in his novels, but in the fact that my childhood crush, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, starred in Huckleberry Finn... that is, until my mom found his picture in my pillow case and taped it in my babybook under "Katie's first love" and teased me incessantly - nevermind, th at's not the point. Here's my list of top 10 favorite Mark Twain quotes. I love these quotes, maybe you will too. 1. Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear. 2. It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt. 3. Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you believe...
I like geography best because mountains & rivers know the secret: Pay no attention to boundaries.
