Quote by Mark Twain

Everyone is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows

Summary

This quote suggests that every person has aspects of themselves that they keep hidden from others, known as their "dark side." It implies that just like the moon only reveals one side to the world, people also present a specific image or facade to the world while keeping their true selves hidden. It emphasizes that there is depth and complexity within each person that is not always visible on the surface.
