Great quotes from Mark Twin's Tom Sawyer

"When I am king, they shall not have bread and shelter only, but also teachings out of books; for a full belly is little worth where the mind is starved . . . "
"Cuando yo sea rey, no tendran solamente pan y casa, sino tambien libros de enseñanza; pues un estomago lleno vale poco cuando la mente no esta alimentada..."

"He had discovered a great law of human action, without knowing it--namely, that in order to make a man or a boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain."
"El ha descubierto una grandiosa ley the acciones de humanos, sin saberlo-nombrar, que en order de hacer a un hombre o a un niño codiciar algo, sólo basta con hacerlo más difícil de obtener."
