In his book entitled "Maverick," Ricardo Semler claims that Mark Twain
"once apologized for writing a long letter becaue he didn't have time
to write a short one." (p.144)

Does anyone know which of Twain's work contains this apology?


I have searched the Net and looked at Jim Zwick's quotations.  I tried
to do a search on the Twain-L.  I have read a lot of Twain's stuff, but
can't remember this.

Many thanks!
