The quote is interesting, but it made me curious about the real origin, since there are so many fake Mark Twain quotes circulating. I checked. It's not directly from Mark Twain, but was quoted in a memoir in 1938, many years after he died. For details see http://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/03/23/belittle-ambitions/
