Mark Twain quote about telling stories?

Question:It was something like, you can tell a story chronologically but it will hardly ever be interesting that way? Sound familiar?

Answers:
Yes, that does sound familiar. I have done quite a bit of research, but have yet to come up with something exactly like that. (Which is not to do say that it doesn't exist.) A Mark Twain quote I have found that might be useful is:

"Ideally a book would have no order to it, and the reader would have to discover his own."

Another quote from Mark Twain's "Following the Equator" - chapter 15-(1897):
"Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities, truth isn't."
