Mark Twain...On kindness: Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.On friends: Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.On growing old: Take any road you please...it curves always, which is a continual promise, whereas straight roads reveal everything at a glance and kill interest.On truth and lies: many when they come to die have spent all the truth that was in them, and enter the next world as paupers.
