Mark Twain’s Humors

Mark Twain was invited to dinner. During the evening, he said to a lady: "Madame, you are too beautiful!" Unexpectedly, the woman said: "Sir, but regrettably, I can not answer you the same thing." Sensitive mind, sharp-tongued Mark Twain smiled and replied: "It does not matter, you can also tell lies, like me.” 一次马克· 吐温应邀赴宴。席间，他对一位贵妇 说：“夫人，你太美丽了！”不料那妇人却说：“ 先生，可是遗憾得很，我不能用同样的话回答 你。” 头脑灵敏，言辞犀利的马克· 吐温笑着回 答：“那没关系，你也可以像我一样说假话。

Even on his death bed, he said to the people surrounding him: “Goodbye, we ll meet each other soon”.幽默了一辈子的

美国作家马克· 吐温，临死也不 改本色，向床边一群与他告别的人说了一句： “再见，我们很快还会相逢呀!”就与世长辞了。 此举让他的亲朋好友目瞪口呆，哭笑不得。因 为，“再见”虽然无法逃过，但谁也不想和他 很快“相逢”。
