Sobre las biografías, habla el propio Twain a propósito de su proyecto de autobiografía: "llegado a este punto me asalta una duda: teniendo antepasados tan brillantes, ¿merece la pena contar una vida tan banal como la mía? Supongo que lo más razonable será no contar nada de mí, salvo que me cuelguen. Si muchos otros biógrafos hubieran hecho lo mismo: limitarse a hablar de sus antepasados y no escribir nada de sí mismos hasta que no les ocurriera algo relevante, el público lector habría salido ganando, ¿no cree?".
