The Quotations and Wits of Mark Twain
Mark Twain, whose real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri, USA, and died on April 21, 1910, in Redding, Connecticut. He was a great American writer, essayist, and humorist. After many travels from the American East to the West and having practiced various professions—such as printer, ranger militia volunteer【2】, and even gold prospector—he eventually worked as a reporter in San Francisco and moved to Europe as an international press correspondent. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer earned him a place in posterity.
