notes"Twain never said it. The quote is actually ‘I have never killed any one, but I have read some obituary notices with great satisfaction.’ It was written by Clarence Darrow, attorney in the Scopes monkey trials, in his autobiography ‘The Story of My Life.’"Tweeting Twain Quotes That Never Were, regarding the recently popular pseudo-Twain quote “I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.” (via nickdouglas)
University of Georgia School of Law Professor Ed Larson wrote a great book about Clarence Darrow. Other great Clarence Darrow quotes found here. It’s incredible that the Scopes trial was almost 100 years ago and that not much has changed.
