"What is the chief end  of man?  -- to get rich.   In what way? -- dishonesty if we can; honestly if we must."

(The phrase "end of man" means what a person's goal is in life.  Write a minimum of 5sentences explaining whether you agree with Mark Twain's statement and why you agree or disagree.)

I disagree with this quote. Even though it sound very cool and wise. I think he should have written "Honestly if we can; dishonesty if we must". A persons top priority should be trying to make it fairly and earn everything being honest, but once again that is my personal opinion.

I think that while the quote does represent how a lot of people live their life, its not the best way. I believe if you go about life that way not much good will come from it. So, I disagree with mark twain's quote because I don't think that this SHOULD be peoples goal in life and it certainly isn't mine. I'm actually kind of surprised that this came from him. Normally I hear good things about him so this is surprising.

I disagree with the quote because he seems like he just wants everything to himself and not thinking about others and that bothers me because he should care about what others think and not just himself because others worked hard too, not just him.

I disagree because I feel like he's being selfish and all about himself and not about  others, seems a little selfish to me because he saying what they must do like that's the only way there are plenty of ways and I feel like he's controlling in my opinion but some of the parts could be true I dont fully disagree but I dont think thats how I want to do It if I were them

I don't think I agree actually, because although it would be nice to get rich and all, that is not all that people want. He's thinking and talking about only himself in this case. This quote wasn't as wise and well received.

I agree with mark twain quote a 100% . people in real life will take the easy road , to get where they want to be. yeah people would say they take the honest way , but when it comes time to choose they choose the easy way. If there no easy way then they would take the longest road possible. To actually get where they want to be. So that´s why agree

I disagree but I think most people's goal in life is to get rich. And at the same time, I think it's wrong because you shouldn't have to lie to earn things. It's better, to be honest, and not being dishonesty to earn and get things in life. Lying about things is gonna come back at you in life at some point so it's not worth it. And you don't have to be rich to be successful in life.

I disagree with Mark Twain's quote, though I do believe that is most of people's goals. In the time, this quote is very true because everyone just wants to be selfish and have tons of money. Who wouldn't want to have tons of money? Especially without any effort. However, that isn't good, for you, your mental health, physical health and everyone around you. Plus, it isn't fair. All of those people who work all day just to feed their family, its either life or death day by day; and then there is you(example) being selfish, wanting everything you see. At the time Twain said this quote it was correct, that is what everyone thought at the time, but life goes on and things change. Now, everyone has the ability to reach success and earn lots of money, and most of the options out there are by saying the truth.

I disagree with the part where he says dishonesty if we can; honestly if we must.
I think being honest is always better. I think being honest whenever you can and lying if you must, is a better moto to go by. However, I do like how he questions why lots of people only want to get rich. Usually, people got rich (especially back then I think) by lying whenever they can and only telling the truth when they have to.

I disagree because I believe he is arrogant and only cares about himself and not others; he appears to be a little arrogant since he says what they must do as if it is the only way when there are many other options, and I believe he is controlling in my perspective, but some of the things may be accurate. I don't completely disagree, but I'm not sure that's how I'd go about it if I were them.

I personally disagree because dishonesty is not the best way to go with getting rich. The quote ''no legacy is so rich as honesty.'', means that you won't do well with being dishonest with others because no one would really or even care about you sometimes or trust you. Another reason why I disagree with this quote is that it is a very selfish way of getting rich and people like that mindset don't usually live long. I think a person's goal in life to be successful is, to be honest, and with the people and really understanding this quote gives me the idea that he uses people for money. In conclusion, many people do have the mindset of this quote and in the end, they don't do well because they are surrounded by people who do the same thing which stops them from growing successful.

I don't agree with this statement. I disagree because not everyone is always in it for the money. I think he could be viewing people as if they all think the same as him. I think he has a painted picture about everyone he meets. I dont think hes the type of person who could trust people easily if he thinks the only tell the truth if they must.

In my opinion, I disagree with his Quote, Where he says Dishonesty if we can; Honesty if we must. It doesn't seem very influential to others on how they are able to achieve a goal, Though Mark Twain seemed very confident with this quote but it would not help peoples way to succeed which we all should be honest, even if its a bad thing or a good thing we still learn from our honestly.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with this Statement becuase most people probably want tons of money because who doesn't but to a point its selfish. And lying isn't a good choice. and I feel like most people think their goal in life is to be rich and have tons of money, Which isn't the only way you can have a life but He states that there is two ways, Either lying or being honest. I feel like people try really hard to live and make money then some people think they can Just have tons of money and lie and cheat out of life.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with Mark Twain Quote because I feel like you shouldn't take this quote as a life tip because not good things could come out of this. And I also feel like he could have said it a different way without sounding selfish. He thinks people only want money and to get rich but I mean who doesn't. But the way he says just sounds like if it's the only way to have a happy life. Because money doesn't always bring happiness. And lying to people isn't always a good choice because it can lead to people not taking you seriously anymore.

I have mixed emotions about this speech what I'm getting from his quote is two sayings. what I'm getting from mark quote is that it does take a lot in life to be successful but in order to be successful and set daily life, goals are to work and strive for things that are ahead and beyond of things that you want to work for not just get it handed towards you but on the other hand, I think mark came from a place where things were handed towards or already prepare to set his life up and already had goals he wanted to achieve before thinking about what he wanted to do so it's a little hard to compare your life towards somebody's else life perspective when you never been through that certain life experience before dealing with how mark twain came upon big in life that is just how I feel and what I'm getting out of his quote that being spoken about.

I have to agree with mark twain because most people aren't honest with eachother

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree because I feel like honesty should always be the way, or atleast switch it. Honesty if we can and dishonesty if we must.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with the quote because he wants everything to himself and not thinking about other people and I feel like he could have said things different without sounding selfish or inconsiderate

# data[].attributes.body
I don't agree with this quote because although you can be dishonest and get away with it. Is it the right thing to do? Is it easier than being honest? When I think of being dishonest I think about all the heartbreak. And consequences that will come from it. Honestly is anything but that.

# data[].attributes.body
While I do think that Mark Twain is trying to portray a perspective on how some may think of life, I do disagree with the overall statement.A person's goal should be to give honesty in all scenarios even in the worst because I believe it earns honesty and respect back to you as well.If you wish to dishonesty between you and others once if they ever found out it would be very hard for them to want to maintain a relationship with you.

I do not agree with Mark twain's quote. even though some of what Mark is saying is remotely true in a way it's still shouldn't be meant for everyone. some people might have the same goals as Mark but he should have rewritten it a different way. some people might have different goals that they want to follow. so I mostly disagree with Mark Twain's statement.

# data[].attributes.body
I personally don't agree with this quote. Not everyone's goal in life is to be the rich. Some people want to help save lives and others may want make the world a better place. Saying that every person's goal is to get rich does not apply to everyone
