Mark Twain 'Classic'

In this little series I want to now and then share my favourite quotes by people I admire.
I hope you enjoy!

Did you know that Mark Twain, known widely for his novels 'Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' and 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer' wasn't even called Mark Twain? His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens. Born in Missouri in 1835, he grew to be 'the father of American literature' as portrayed by William Faulkner. Twain, up to this day, does not fail to amuse, entertain and even surprise his audience from time to time.

"'Classic' - a book which people praise and don't read."
― Mark Twain
