The following is unsourced and Wikiquote calls it a possible fake, but this quote, long attributed to Mark Twain, is still funny no matter who said it:

Here's a good
uncontested quote from Sammy, from his book
The Innocents Abroad:
"They spell it 'Vinci' and pronounce it 'Vinchy'. Foreigners always spell better than they pronounce."
