    The best part of a writer’s biography is not the record of his adventures but the story of his style.

    And a voice came from heaven, “You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased.”
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 1:11.

    The low level which commercial morality has reached in America is deplorable. We have humble God fearing Christian men among us who will stoop to do things for a million dollars that they ought not to be willing to do for less than 2 millions.
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
