Well, if you believe Suetonius, these were not even his antepenulti-
mate words.  Nero later reproached himself for his troubles in Greek
quite a bit (man of culture, you know).  When the horsemen who were to
have captured him alive were heard coming, he quoted the Iliad (quote
on request).  He then stabbed himself in the throat.  When the horse-
men showed up, he said "Sero!" [Too late!] and then "Haec est fides!"
[Here's fidelity for you!], which were the actual last words as
recorded (at a considerably later time) by Suetonius.

It's certainly true that this statement is widely referred to as Sturgeon's
law.  I recall reading that the story was that a friend said to him at a
cocktail party "You've got to admit, Ted, 90% of science fiction is crap".

Of course this is a special case of Zipf's law and so is an instance of
Stigler's law of eponomy: "No scientific discovery is named for its

Michael's version, while it may not be completely correct, is probably nearer
the truth.

As for the burgeoning Twain/Austen war, I will say that while much of
Twain's nonfiction is hilarious, some of it is pretty stupid.  Try
his essay on why Bacon wrote Shakespeare's plays, or any of his essays
on determinism.  Egad.

On the whole, Austen can be very insightful, clever, and delightfully
ironic, but she has her own faults, which include a similarity of plots and
a predilection for characters that sit around and talk but do nothing.

I enclose the following quotes, which, in my mind, make up for
any boredom I have endured or will endure reading the works of these great 
authors:

        It was rather too late in the day to set about being simple-minded
and ignorant.

      Two convicts, in a prison cell, looking at a framed dollar bill on
the wall. One says to the other:
     "First dollar bill I ever made - a quarter of an inch too large..."

How about:
Though justice be thy plea, consider this,
That in the course of justice, none of us
Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy
And that same prayer doth teach us all to render
The deeds of mercy.
