"I have never let my schooling interfere with my education" - Mark Twain -- the Quote Investigator just read this page and informed me that this was probably not said by Mark Twain but was maybe only attributed to Mark Twain in a 1907 advertisement by Daisy Air Rifles. http://quoteinvestigator.com/2010/09/25/schooling-vs-educati...

He's done an amazing investigation. Oh well. Mark Twain was certainly the kind of guy who would have said it.
