Welcome to another Mark Twain Sunday here at Minding My Own Bees Wax
Today, our words of wisdom from the man in the white suit are about TOLERANCE
Quotes pulled from TwainQuotes.com:
All the talk about tolerance, in anything or anywhere, is plainly a gentle lie. It does not exist. It is in no man's heart; but it unconsciously, and by moss-grown inherited habit, drivels and slobbers from all men's lips.
- Mark Twain's Autobiography
If the man doesn't believe as we do, we say he is a crank and that settles it. I mean it does nowadays, because we can't burn him.
- Following the Equator
"A man with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds."
