Answer:

The full quote of Mark Twain is:

<em>"“When in doubt tell the truth. It will confound your enemies and astound your friends.” </em>

Explanation:

Mark Twain's religious beliefs had certain elements of Christianity also. According to Christian's Holy Bible God hates liar.

"<em>Proverbs 12:22  </em>

<em>The LORD detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy." </em>

So Twain in his quote is also emphasizing the importance of speaking truth. Whatever the situation may be speaking truth will gain us friends.
