Mark Twain Quotes

As Regards His Health
and The Rest Of The Things
the Average Man Is What His Environment And His Superstitions Have Made Him; And Their Function Is To Make Him An Ass. He Can't Add Up Three Or Four New Circumstances Together And Perceive What They Mean; It Is Beyond Him. He Is Not Capable Of Observing For Himself; He Has To Get Everything At Second-hand. If What Are Miscalled The Lower Animals Were As Silly As Man Is, They Would All Perish From The Earth In A Year.
