A lot of you folks in SE++ seem to pride yourselves on being irreverent, belligerent smartasses.
Well, it's time to give some props to your king.
This motherfucker, right here.
America is built on a tilt and everything loose slides to California.
I have no special regard for Satan; but, I can at least claim that I have no prejudice against him. It may even be that I lean a little his way, on account of his not having a fair show. All religions issue bibles against him, and say the most injurious things about him, but we never hear his side. We have none but the evidence for the prosecution, and yet we have rendered the verdict. To my mind, this is irregular. It is un-English, it is un-American; it is French.
When I was sixteen, my father was the most ignorant man in the world. By the time I reached 21, I was surprised at how much he had learned in five years.
I have found solace in profanity unexcelled even by prayer.
Every generalization is false, including this one.
Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.

Wisdom for the ages.
Mark Twain felt strongly about Jane Austen.
posthumously, of course
Clemens is ok.
He doesn't have anything on Twain, though.

The only Twain things I remember reading are a short story that I liked but don't remember the name of, and Huck Finn
I read Huck Finn twice; once in 5th grade, once in 9th.
In 5th I thought it was the stupidest thing ever, and could barely understand it.
In 9th I thought it should be placed in a shrine to honor it.
I really should dig up my copy and read it again.
