Mark Twain's comments and quips are unforgettable for their sharp humour,insight and simplicity. Here are a few of them on education, parenting and success.
" We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it- and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sat down on a hot stove lid, and would never sit on it again, and that is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one anymore."
"Let us be thankful of fools. But for them the rest of us could not succeed."
"Education: that which reveals to the wise and conceals from the stupid, that vast limit of their knowledge."
"My mother had a great deal of trouble with me, but I think she enjoyed it."
Hope you enjoyed Mark Twain's quips, do you have some more interesting ones?
