"Money-lust has always existed but not in the history of the world was it ever a craze, a madness, until your time and mine. This lust has rotted these nations [of Europe and America]; it has made them hard, sordid, ungentle, dishonest, oppressive."
Twain once said that the whote stripes on the american flag should be painted black and the stars should be rearranged to make a skull. Unlike the protesters of today, Twain actually had something to complain about with a good argument.
He also didnt like religion:
"Most people can't bear to sit in church for an hour on Sundays. How are they supposed to live somewhere very similar to it for eternity?" --- Mark Twain
Also, he looks like the guy from Kentucky Fried Chicken.
