A life well lived


26 And he said, c“The kingdom of God isas if a man should scatter seed on theground. 27 He sleeps and rises night andday, and the seed sprouts and grows; dheknows not how. 28 The earth produces byitself, first the blade, then the ear, then thefull grain in the ear. 29 But when the grainis ripe, at once ehe puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

Out of context it sounds like the same thing but in context Ecclesiastes 1:9 has a different meaning than the intent of the Twain quote.

Twain is talking about nothing being new and everything "new" is just something old recycled or reconfigured, not meaningless.

The teacher in Ecclesiastes is elaborating on the idea that everything is meaningless.
I think it this case you were more correct than I. How about this one...Paraphrased:

"If a man has enough faith he can say to this mountain "Get up and be moved to the sea and it will happen."
