    I can’t find a source for this quote. Twain gets a lot of attributions. Can anyone point me to something that says which work he wrote this in?

      If it doesn’t sound remotely close to Twain, it’s not Twain.

      Mark Twain said that.

      I see nothing reputable after a cursory search, but I did find “The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man’s.” - Mark Twain which I choose to believe, and now I want to train a LLM on his corpus and have it on voice recognition. ‘Hey Sam, what do ya think of this’ is likely to provide hours of amusement, thanks for the diversion.
