Mark Twain is credited with that, as well as with these.
"It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt." [This is also in the Book of Proverbs. 10:14 "Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the fool brings ruin near."Also 12:23 "A prudent man conceals knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaims his foolishness."]
"Under certain circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer."
"I have never let my schooling interfere with my education."
"Always do right - this will gratify some and astonish the rest."
"Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been."
