The Diary of Adam and Eve


Mark Twain brilliantly gets down to the true nature of man and woman. It's so funny that I was always giggling and ended up reading the whole thing to my husband because every word was good and worth repeating. It's a quick easy read if you've never done so you absolutely should!


Quotes: (This entire book is quote worthy,but here are a few of my favs.)

"After all these years, I see that I was mistaken about Eve in the beginning; it is better to live outside the Garden with her than inside it without her."
— Mark Twain (The Diaries of Adam and Eve)

"Wheresoever she was, there was Eden."
— Mark Twain (The Diaries of Adam and Eve)

"How little a thing can make us happy when we feel that we have earned it."
— Mark Twain (The Diaries of Adam and Eve)

"I wish I could make him understand that a loving good heart is riches enough, and that without it intellect is poverty."
— Mark Twain (The Diaries of Adam and Eve)

Ooh, this is one I've actually read! Such a great book! I think I read pretty much all of it to Nate too because it was just so funny.
