Mark Twain's Roughing It is a book that many people don't know about, but I highly recommend to anybody at any age.
“My office has been one of the most scrupulous in the country with regard to the protection of individual rights. I've been on record for years in law journals and books as championing the rights of the individual against the oppressive power of the state.”
“Fiction has a unique role in conveying Truth. In fact, only fiction that is Truth with a capital T is worthwhile.”
