Samuel Langhorne Clemens is better known to us all by his pen name, Mark Twain.
In my opinion, he was one of the greatest American writers, as well as a humorist, entrepreneur, publisher and lecturer.
In short, he was a major talent and much of what he had to say is worthy of our attention.
So here are 15 quotes by Mark Twain to emphasise my point.
