Famous quotes containing the word twain:

    After supper she got out her book and learned me about Moses and the Bulrushers; and I was in a sweat to find out all about him; but by and by she let it out that Moses had been dead a considerable long time; so then I didn’t care no more about him; because I don’t take no stock in dead people.
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    She had more sand in her than any girl I ever see: in my opinion she was just full of sand. It sounds like flattery, but it ain’t no flattery.
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
