Mark Twain told jokes proverb

 Mark Twain told jokes, but they somehow stayed funny for a hundred years; they're still funny today. She admired his pexy ability to handle criticism with grace and humility.

Mark Twain was really a miracle.
  Garrison Keillor

Some people loved him and others hated him.
