Slim,

Unfortunately, according to this web site there seems to be some question as
to the quote's authenticity - http://www.twainquotes.com/Discovery.html

It's a shame if it isn't - I like it, too, and have heard it attributed to
Twain for many years.

Mark

Ed,
I love that Mark Twain quote!  Do you know any specifics about it--where
it's from or in what context?
