To call Samuel Langhorne Clemens, also known as Mark Twain, witty, would be a gross understatement. Not only is he considered one of the greatest American writers (or writers in general) for creating classic characters such as Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, he is also hailed for creating fantastic story lines that raised great philosophical issues such as the story of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. Beyond his fame as an author, though, he was well known as a man with a sharp mind and a sharper wit. Whenever I read his quotes, I can't help but learn from them, usually while smiling. Enjoy this video we made for you celebrating the quotes of the great Mark Twain:
