Mark Twain is one of the most frequently quoted pundits in history. There’s a good reason for that – when you write a bunch of books, have a cool moustache, and spend a lot of time down South just hanging out and shooting the breeze, being quoted a lot is bound to happen.
Among the pearls of wisdom attributed to Mr. Twain are such unforgettable lines as “It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog,” and “The trouble ain’t that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain’t distributed right,” and “I don’t care if ‘ain’t’ ain’t a word, I wrote the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn! Ain’t, ain’t, ain’t!”
One of my favorite Mark Twain sayings is about watermelon, and I’ve taken the liberty of inscribing it below on a piece of, what else, watermelon. I’m not sure if this quote was in any of Mr. Twain’s written works or if it was just something he said one day while enjoying a heavenly slice of watermelon. Either way, they’re wise words from a wise man.

Oh the pearls of wisdom that came out of Mark Twain’s mouth. I’m sure if Angels ate anything, it would be watermelon. Have a great day.
