马克吐温先看了一下登记簿 他发现很多旅客都是这样登记的 比如 拜特福公爵和他的仆人 这位著名的作家于是也写道 马克吐温和他的箱子 赞美有一次马克 吐温与一位夫人对坐 他对她说 你真漂亮 夫人高傲地回答 可惜我实在无法同样地赞美你 马克 吐温毫不介意地笑笑说 夫人 只要像我一样说假话就行了 MarkTwain shumor wit 回敬法国名人波盖取笑美国人历史太短 说 美国人没事的时候 往往喜欢怀念祖宗 可是一想到祖父一代 就不能不打住了 马克 吐温回敬说 法国人没事的时候 总是想弄清他们的父亲是谁 可是很难弄清楚 将军当马克 吐温还是一个不大知名的作家时 有人把他介绍给格兰特将军 两人握过手后 马克 吐温想不出一句可讲的话 而格兰特也保持平日的那种缄默态度 最后还是马克 吐温结结巴巴地说了一句 将军 我感到很尴尬 你呢 MarkTwain snamesMarkTwain
