“All the territorial possessions of all the political establishments in the earthincluding America, of courseconsist of pilferings from other peoples wash.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
“In this world, which is so plainly the antechamber of another, there are no happy men. The true division of humanity is between those who live in light and those who live in darkness.
