    It's a supposed Mark Twain quote. However, I've never been able to corroborate the fact.

    It's brilliant, regardless.

    It's often attributed to Twain - however, I've never been able to verify the fact.

    Sure easy for "Mark Twain" to say considering he isn't even a real person.
    Big talk from a pseudonym.
    Try dying for real buddy see how you like it.
    Bloody pen names think they know everything.

    Nom de Plume humor is a very specialized branch of comedy.I would hardly expect it to be appreciated by everyone.
    Pity I had a killer joke about
    George Orwell, Lewis Carroll and a midget.
