A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining, but wants it back the minute it begins to rain.
According to R. Ken Rasmussen in The Quotable Mark Twain (1998), this is most probably not Twain's.

Some people think I always wear the hat, but that's not true. Sometimes I don't wear the hat. It makes me laugh that some people think I always wear the hat, because obviously I don't wear the hat all the time. What about when I sleep or take a shower? I don't wear the hat then. Also, I don't wear the hat to go to Millets.
