WIT AND WISDOM: A FEW WORDS FROM MARK TWAIN

"All you need to succeed in medicine is ignorance and confidence."

"My religion does not condone abstinence. We believe in reform, but not to excess."

"If God created man, He must have had a sense of humor. Or else He was tired."

"When in doubt, tell the truth."

"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man."

"A baby is an inestimable blessing and bother."

"Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits."

"Work consists of whatever a body is obliged to do. Play consists of whatever a body is not obliged to do."

"Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest."
