-----Advice From Mark Twain-----

Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you
please.

Be careless in your dress if you will, but keep a tidy soul.

There are several good protections against temptation, but the
surest is cowardice.

Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.

We ought never to do wrong when people are looking.

If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything.

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

All you need to be assured of success in this life is ignorance
and confidence.

Have a place for everything and keep the thing somewhere else;
this is not a piece of advice, it is merely a custom.

It's a good idea to obey all the rules when you're young just so
you'll have the strength to break them when you're old.

Let us not be too particular It is better to have old secondhand
diamonds than none at all.

Do something every day that you don't want to do; this is the
golden rule for acquiring the habit of doing your duty without
pain.

If a person offends you, and you are in doubt as to whether it was
intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measures; simply
watch for your chance and hit him with a brick.

Always acknowledge a fault frankly. This will throw those in
authority off their guard and give you an opportunity to commit
more.

There is no use in your walking five miles to fish when you can
depend on being just as unsuccessful near home.

Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and
let the food fight it out inside.

It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to
open it and remove all doubt.

Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone, you may
still exist, but you have ceased to live.

Be careful to get out of an experience all the wisdom that is in
it; not like the cat that sits down on a hot stove. She will never
sit down on a hot stove lid again...and that is well; but also
she will never sit down on a cold one anymore.

--  The above all by Mark Twain

bring forth evil, both equally unexpected.
