If you never had the opportunity to read Mark Twain’s “What Is Man?”, I highly recommend it.  You can read it on Google for free here.

It’s a fairly quick read with a very profound argument in the format of a dialog between and old man and a young man.   I love Mark Twain’s work, and this is pretty close to the top of my list of favorites.  To me, this shows that Mark Twain was far more than a satirical writer; he is a philosopher.   Check it out…  Enjoy.
