What Mark Twain did say: “Never put off till to-morrow what you can do day after to-morrow just as well.” 2. This quote has also been attributed to Agatha Christie, though neither source can be verified as the author of this line. “The secret of getting ahead is getting started.” Here are 10 quotes The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn author likely never uttered (despite popular belief). Mark Twain provided us with some of the best quips of all-time-but he's also one of the most misquoted people who ever lived.
