Mark Twain delivered this speech after following a toast made to "the ladies." In it, he praises women for their contributions both large and small to history and society. "Take any type of woman," he says, "and you shall find in it something to respect, something to admire, something to love." From Joan of Arc to Florence Nightingale to his own mother, Twain sings the praises of incredible women everywhere.
