A SATIRICAL SELF-HELP GUIDE SHOWCASING MARK TWAIN’S WITTIEST QUOTES ABOUT THE LIFE WELL LIVED. This illustrated collection of Mark Twain quotes presents the best of the curmudgeonly writer’s thoughts on diet, exercise, medicine, smoking, drinking, romance, parenting, old age, fashion, finances, politics, and religion. Curated by Twain expert Mark Dawidziak, it’s the perfect gift for anyone who’s had enough of Gwyneth’s self-righteous advice. And even though it’s packed with wicked humor and anti-advice, it’s actually rich with wisdom as well. Samples of Mark Twain's Wit: "Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself." "As for drinking, I have no rule about that. When the others drink I like to help." "I have seen slower, quieter, more listless, lazier people than I am, but they were dead." "Familiarity breeds contempt — and children." "Do not put off until tomorrow what can be put off till day-after-tomorrow just as well."
