    hi there, nice Quote of the day, but the part where mark twain said “without knowing what he is hollering about” is interesting, i guess lots of us are talking about change but we still need to understand more about what change is all about. everyday we learn,everyday we change, everyday we improve ourself and everyday we act upon these changes.

    amazing quote, so true and profound. thanks for posting.
    here’s another twain quote

    my kind of loyalty was loyalty to one’s country, not to its institutions or its office-holders. The country is the real thing, the substantial thing, the eternal thing; it is the thing to watch over, and care for, and be loyal to; institutions are extraneous, they are its mere clothing, and clothing can wear out, become ragged, cease to be comfortable, cease to protect the body from winter, disease, and death. To be loyal to rags, to shout for rags, to worship rags, to die for rags — that is a loyalty of unreason, it is pure animal; it belongs to monarchy, was invented by monarchy; let monarchy keep it.

    i admire this man since i watched tom sawyer cartoon .. great writer.
