The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

"I can't ever do nothing right in this world."

"That warn't no proper way to treat a dog."

"I couldn't see no sense in the most of it."

"Sometimes I lifted my head and listened over the water."

"I was the most astonished. I didn't know nothing to do."

"There was some books too, and things in them that warn't true."

"Providence had ordered the thing so, as we reckoned."

"I felt bad and mean, because I knowed very well I had done wrong."

"I couldn't seem to strike no places to harden on to."

"Blamed if I can see no p'ints about it, that's so."

"I was ever so grateful; so I told him I wouldn't forget him ever, and I wouldn't, neither."

"I went to sleep, and Jim didn't call me when it was my turn."

"He don't mean no harm. He is always a-doing something."

"The stars was shining, and the leaves rustled in the wind ever so soft."

"I couldn't bear to think about it; and yet, somehow, I couldn't think about nothing else."

"Honest injun, now—is all that true?"

"If I had knowed what a trouble it was to make a book I wouldn't a tackled it."

"It don't make no difference how foolish it is, it's the right way to do it."

"I felt so mean I could almost kissed his foot to get him to take it back."

"I would rather have as lief not tell who I am."

"We said there warn't no home like a raft."

"It's lovely to live on a raft."

"I never wanted to go much before."

"I don't take no stock in dead people."

"It was kind of lazy and jointed, and I liked it."

"The widow Douglas took me for her son, and allowed she would sivilize me."

"All I wanted was to go somewheres; all I wanted was a change."

"I reckon I got to light out for the Territory ahead of the rest, because Aunt Sally she's going to adopt me and sivilize me, and I can't stand it."

"Then the rents come in from the farm and the mills and such things"

"If you don't want to go, you don't have to"
