Gentlemen, today we acknowledge the finest literary moustache ‘Murica has ever produced, Sir Mark Twain, a.k.a. Sir Samuel Langhorne Clemens.
Most history books list 1917 as the year that the US and Germany first went to war. However, this is not true. 43 years earlier, the two great nations squared off in the infamous Twain/Nietzsche Walrus War that raged silently on opposite sides the Atlantic until Nietzsche's death in 1900.
'Murica 3, Germany 0.
Gentlemen, Sir Mark Twain...
“I good moustache” - Mark Twain.Twain is perhaps the most quoted moustache in history. As a lexical craftsman, Twain wields an axe of wisdom, striking pithy blows in the shape of revelationary epigrams. As a moustache, Twain simply rocks.
