"Avoid people who belittle your aspirations. That's what small people do. Truly great people make you feel that you too can become great."
Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain is nom de plume) is considered one of the most famous American writers. It is known for its innate sense of humor and describing adventures based on childhood experiences and his work on the Mississippi River. Its most prominent parts are Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Adventures of Tom Sawyer. His aphorisms are still popular today... but let's take a look at some of the most ironic.
Mark Twain ironic quotes:
If you take in a starving dog and feed it, it won't bite you. And this is the basic difference between a dog and a human.
Sometimes I wonder if we are ruled by smart people who are joking or imbeciles who are serious.
History does not repeat itself, but it rhymes.
The human race has only one truly effective weapon - laughter!
Some worship rank, some heroes, some power, still others God, and because of these ideals they cannot possibly unite - but they all worship money.
If you have nothing to say, keep quiet.
To succeed in life you need two things: ignorance and self-confidence.
A classic is what everyone praises but no one has read.

Read medical books carefully. You might die from a typo.
Never argue with idiots. They will bring you down to their level and shower you with their experiences.
If you don't read newspapers, you are uninformed. If you are reading them, you are misinformed.
We love people who say what they think to our face - but only if they think the same as us.
When you find yourself in the majority, it's time to make a change.
Never put off until tomorrow if you can put off until the day after tomorrow.
Dance like nobody's watching. Sing like nobody's listening. Love as if no one has ever betrayed you and live as if it's heaven on Earth.
