- Mark Twain is one of the most influential authors in American history. He lived a hard life with no father, a mother who died when he was 12, and dropped out of school to go to work. But he made his way up to become one of the most famous writers in the world.
Why do we love Mark Twain? Maybe it’s his humor, his wisdom, or his wit? Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was a writer, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher, and lecturer from the United States. He was dubbed the "best humorist the United States has ever produced".
His words and wisdom have stood the test of time, bringing as much delight today as they did when he wrote them. This video is a collection of some of the wisest, deepest, and most powerful Mark Twain quotes that (if applied) could change your life and the way you see the world forever.
In this video, you'll see life-changing and inspirational quotes from him on life, people, the world, friends, and other subjects. I tried to collect some of his most powerful and inspiring quotes that can change your life (if applied). I think everyone should know these inspiring sayings and the powerful message behind them before old age.
I put a lot of work, effort, and time into making this video and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it. Thank you for watching!

Anger is not acid; anger is bitter. As anger feeds into a person's mind the person becomes bitter.
Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it

Man, so true.
This is my quote "alone I was born, alone I lived, alone I died and no one will remember me"
Imagine you finished that quote with (-Jesus) lol
@@theancientsam The meaning of this quote is this: this is not said by a person, this is said by "the body". "The body" are the three emotions of compassion, anger, and envy. "The body" forms alone, live alone, dies alone and no one remembers to secure it. "The body" looks for security. So one has to secure "the body" otherwise "the body" in its search for security will look for security outside. This is no good for neither the person, nor those surrounding the person. This quote says that life is about mental security as few people secure their "bodies."
This story explains the aspect that the body looks for security
An encounter with the perfect man
I'm sitting outside a coffee shop opposite the university where I work when a lecturer colleague, Mark, as he's going past says to me, 'What's this irresponsible Venezuelan doing in the UK?' Ignoring his remark I ask, 'Have you noticed how students seem to be quite late to classes nowadays?' He checks his stride to say, 'Well, I've noticed how people no longer seem to queue at bus stops.'
I continue by telling him about the ring scam where the perpetrator bends just in front of one pretending he's picking up a ring he's just found; he then tries to fit it on one of his fingers, but as it doesn't, he's willing to exchange it for any cash one wishes to volunteer. Remembering how silent I used to be Mark is stunned by my chattiness, and comes to a halt. He gives me a perplexed look as if I were an extra-terrestrial. Rather than continue walking, he backtracks, enters the coffee shop, comes out with a salad and sits beside me.
I quiz him on Bill Gates. He replies, belittling this famous person, 'Who's that? Who's that?' So I give him my thoughts on Gates through my interpretation of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,
'There are two main characters - the Witch and Snow White. The witch represents the person who, although not superior, demands superiority at whatever activity. She is the person who is fuming for not having been born superior. Whereas, Snow White is the person who is superior.'
Giving me an inquisitive look he drawls, 'How do you think of that?' I was truly enjoying this. I was finally getting even with Mark after many years of being on the losing side.
I go for the killer blow and tell him my thoughts on the perfect man - 'The perfect man goes to Trafalgar Square and stands there like a statue for the rest of his life.' After a silence, he exclaims, 'That's Nelson!' Again he goes silent, whilst I wait to see if the blow has done the trick. Yes it has! He can't take it any more. Suddenly he stands up; with terror filled eyes he asserts, 'It's a question of security.' I lower my head and acknowledge, 'Yes that's the word, security' Staring at me suspiciously he picks the empty plate. 'I'm going to pay the man his security,' he says, and goes into the coffee shop. He comes out, and walking close to me, giving me a distasteful, suspicious, angry and frightened look, and nearly head-butting me he exclaims, 'The birds will shit on him!' Lowering my head, I reply, 'No, he's too strong.'
Well, it's now time to introduce the perfect man to others and as there are two colleagues in my office, I ask them, 'Do you know who the perfect man is?' both in tandem reply, 'me!' By now, I can hardly contain my laughter, but I do manage to keep a straight face and tell them, 'No, the perfect man goes to Trafalgar Square and stands there like a statue for the rest of his life.' Both immediately reply, 'The birds will shit on him!'
My fourth introduction of the perfect man is to a Kenyan friend. The others had been from Scotland, England and Wales. It just goes to show all human beings are the same because as soon as I mention that the perfect man walks to Trafalgar Square and stands there like a statue, my Kenyan friend tightens his fingers and moving his hand as if he was about to lay something says, 'The birds will shit on him!' Again I laugh, and he remarks, “what are you some kind of psychologist?”
Poor perfect man - he is not welcomed anywhere!
Questions: why do the people want to attack the statue? What has the statue done to them? If they want to destroy the statue is because they fear the statue, why should they fear an inanimate object?

None of those who said "the birds will shit on him" have mental security. Mark thinks a while and then clicks, "it's a question of security" in other words a statue represents a secure body. However, Mark does not apply mental security, so in Mark's case the quote "alone I was born, alone I lived, alone I died and no one will remember me" applies. His "body" (the emotions of anger, envy and the heart lodged themselves into his mind forming "the body") it was formed alone, lives alone, and will die alone, as Mark will not remember it. Btw I do remember my "body" and I do give it the security it wants. Wish you well.
My favorite quote is from W.C.Fields. “Start every day with a smile and get it over with.”
Good things come to those who wait and don't die in the mean time

Age is an issue of mind over matter ,If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.😊
"There's no sadder thing than a young pessimist, except an old optimist."
Such deep and wise words! This one is one of my favorite quotes from Mark Twain too!
Thank you so much for watching and sharing your opinion. Sending you positive vibes and good energy 💛
Am I missing something? I don’t understand this quote. Does he mean that both optimism and pessimism are not in keeping with reality, and that to have lived long and not learned this lesson is sad?
@@adamsmith307 Twain is just saying that when you're young, you're likely to be optimistic and pessimistic when you're old, because of the experience of the ever-treacherous world. If you're a young pessimist, you're starting off in life without the optimism that can act as a buffer for the insults you'll encounter, so you're disadvantaged, and an old optimist would be someone who's learned nothing from all the betrayal-realizations that should have occurred over the years. It's humorous and not altogether some kind of serious statement.
Nioce
Thank you so much for watching! 💛
Interesting...I thought the saying was "Money is the root of all evil" but he said "Lack of money is the root of all evil"
Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you find it helpful. I hope you have a wonderful rest of the day 💛
My Bible says "the love of money" is the root of all evil.
The original quote is much older than 1800s i think

What i the one belittling you is your mum, what can you do?
Can't choose? It's like I'm on the S.S. Minnow, and I can bring 5 albums (yes I dated myself, and Gilligan will peddle the exercise bike [where did that come from?] that produces the electricity that powers the record player [where did that come from?] that will play the 5 albums [you were smart enough to bring "on a 3 hour cruise"?] {Oh, none of the albums can be greatest hits or in concert.} [Jesus Christ!...stop over analyzing a Sherwood Schwartz sitcom that aired from 1964 to '67. Sorry can't help myself. It's a good bottle of wine. In my day there weren't IEP's. All buses were long and we fended for ourselves Kinda like 'Lord of the Flies'.]. Sorry for miss-spellings or improper use of punctuation.
Great story...needs more Dragons
This sounds like a British person trying to sound American.
Great quotes but these voiceovers are cringe-worthy
Terrible audio. Lack of understanding shows. Sorry.
Bad reading and garbled pronunciation
