"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
-Mark Twain (1835-1910)
Twain’s entire life he would have a love affair with Arkansas, a legendary land he probably never saw from any angle other than a river boatman’s on the Mississippi River. However, that wasn’t a handicap to their relationship. Captain Isaiah Sellers was probably one of Twain’s inspirations about Arkansas and the man who gave Samuel Clements
the name of Mark Twain.
