马卡连柯（Mark Twain）是美国著名作家和散文家，其代表作品有《汤姆·索亚历险记》、《哈克贝里·费恩历险记》等。他不仅是文学界的一位巨匠，也是一位思想家、观察家和评论家。以下是马卡连柯的一些名人名言：
1. "The secret of getting ahead is getting started." 想要取得成功，要先行动起来。
2. "A person who won't read has no advantage over one who can't read." 不愿阅读的人和无法阅读的人并没有区别。
3. "Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." 年龄只是心态问题，如果你不在意，它就没那么重要了。
4. "Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see." 善良是一种聋子能听到、盲人能看到的语言。
5. "The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one." 取得成功的秘诀就是开始行动。而开始行动的秘诀则是把复杂的任务分成小而易管理的任务，然后从第一个开始着手实施。
6. "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education." 我从未让我的学业妨碍了我的教育。
7. "When in doubt, tell the truth." 如果不知道该怎么做，就说实话。
8. "The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who cannot read them." 不读好书的人与不能读好书的人没有任何区别。

10. "Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect." 每当你发现自己在多数人的那一边的时候，就是停下来反思的时候了。
这些名言体现了马卡连柯批判、深刻的思想和独特的文学风格，值得我们借鉴和学习。
