1,453 words"Not a day's work in all my life. What I have done, I have done because it has been play. If it had been work I shouldn't have done it... When we talk about the great workers of the world we really mean the great players of the world. " -Mark Twain As this quote shows, games were a very important part of life to Mark Twain.
