i agree with this statement because it reminds me from another class ELA. the teacher told me that you should always have a goal. to make sure you always have something to look up to. cause then you would have motivation for whatever it is. my goal is to graduate high school. then from college

I agree with Mark Twain because one of his quotes said something very true. "end of men". This is a part of his quote. "end of men means what a person's goal in life is. I think this is very inspirational because many people don't have goals. People need that push to have or do a goal. If they want to get or reach something they need motivation and this quote gives motivation.

In Mark Twain's quote, he says that a person's goal in life is to get rich. If it is possible they will lie and get rich dishonestly, and only if they are forced to, they will get rich honestly. I agree with the quote because, in general, the end goal of all people is to succeed in life. Most people relate success with becoming rich, therefore that becomes their goal as well. And in the world, there are people who do things honestly, but also people who do things dishonestly. If they can, they will cheat their way to success through fraudulent and deceiving actions.

I agree with Mark Twain's statement. In this world in order to be big and "control people" you need to have money. In order to get the money you either could get it honestly or dishonestly. When people are greedy they only care about themselves and do will do whatever they have to do in order to get what they want. If you don't have money you cant do anything or get anything. Many people will go to the extend and be dishonest and trick people to get money, cause most of the time money leads to becoming big and successful. Some people do also get money while being honest and helping others.

I agree with Mark Twainś statement. Most things, or to get most things we want or need we have to have money to get it. The end of man or a personś goal can be to obtain money to help one of their family members in need or for their personal uses. I think what he means by Dishonestly and Honestly, first starting with dishonestly is maybe by lying, trying to obtain money in illegal ways and honestly by working hard for the money. I think what he means by the statement that someone will do anything to obtain money, someone's main goal in life.

I would have to agree with this when he said that it's people's goal to become rich in life because to me it is a really true statement. And also when he said ¨end of men¨which means what a personal goal is in life. And both of them topics are kinda important to me because people really do see life in these type of ways in like their own benefit and trying to make their own personal life.

I agree with mark Twain when he say it is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open  it and remove all doubt this relates to because some kids and they need to shut their mouth and listen. another one is if you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything this relates to the truth will set you free so these are good information quotes

I agree with Mark Twain because most people today will lie there way through life if they can, even if it's not an option. mist people lie nowadays to get what they want in life and they will go as far as doing illegal things to get it. Very few people these days will actually try and get a good job the right way. Yes it may sound fake but if you look around these days theres kids going around destroying propourty buying drungs skipping class when they should be working on there future. I dont know if you don't beleive me but just take a vew minutes and look at ritenour and you will see

I agree with Mark Twain because he says that the main goal of man is to get rich and it is true many people think about achieving it, but as he also says that "in what way?" “Dishonest…. Or honestly maybe many people think that they can dishonestly get more money and easier but it is better to do everything honestly.

I agree with Mark because when he said that it is better to keep your mouth shut and let people think that you are a fool than to open up and also one of his quotes navigates something very true '' end of men, this is part of this of this quote. and both topics are a bit important to me because people really see life in these kinds of topics.

I agree with the way mark twain thought in the first sentence because he's basically asking ¨what is chiefs goal in life¨ and then its saying that a chiefs goal is to get rich weather they a honest getting there or dishonest. I feel that they should be honest throughout their journey on getting rich but then again what's one lie just don't do it all the time.

I Agree with Mark Twain's Quote "End Of Man" because this quote gives very much meaning to a person's life to prepare for the challenges in their life and gives very much motivation to the meaning to do whatever it takes to get to that point or goal. and in this meaning, i think it means money cant buy happiness and you should cherish what you have

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Mark Twain's quote. I agree because I feel that a lot of people in the world choose to get money dishonestly instead of actually working hard to achieve their big goal.I also think that when you get money honestly then you can actually say that you worked for what you have and that you earned every bit of it.If you want to get rich and just want to do it the easy way and be dishonest about it then you really can't say you worked hard and earned everything you have.That is what I think about the Mark Twain quote.

I agree with Mark Twain. Many people all they want in life is to be rich no matter how. Dishonesty plays a huge part people don't care who they backstabbed if they know they can get a lot of money off it. End of man means personal goal people will do anything to achieve their goal. End of conclusion people care about money more than there own honesty and trust

I agree with mark twain s quote because he was angry. the people stealing and being dishonest. He wants people to work for for the money to buy food and ect. He doesn't like what gilded age has become. i do agree with him because he is right. People should earn their money by working and they can look back and be proud.

# data[].attributes.body
i agree with mark twain statement because getting rich is one way of helping the people you love. mark twain was using sarcasm towards people that stole to make fun of them because they were stealing from people who mostly earned all there stuff. like money stealing money takes someone else's stuff away because that money can buy them something for themselves or others. he was mad at all thieves because they stole. i think if you are going to try and be rich you should be honest on the way there and finish honestly too

I, in my opinion, do agree with him . Especially with "end of man" that is like the impact of success or not even that but to a person happiness. That "end of man" means a lot of definitions for people. Many of his quotes are very inspirational. goals and especially big gaols, people really got hustle and work to get the goal acomplished.

I agree with Mark Twain, because in my family we say when we want something, we need to work hard for that. I also don't feel that it's okay to steal from others. If everything is handed to us then no one will want to work. Also its important to treat others how we want to be treated. If we live by this we all would be better people.
