MARK TWAIN ON PRAISE
I like compliments. I like to go home and tell them all over again to the members of my family. They don’t believe them, but I like to tell them in the home circle, all the same. I like to dream of them if I can. I thank everybody for their compliments, but I don’t think that I am praised any more than I am entitled to be. From an address to the Society of American Authors by Mark Twain on November 15, 1900
