Insults with class #1


  • The exchange between Churchill and Lady Astor: She said, "If you were my husband, I'd give you poison." He said, "If you were my wife, I'd drink it."
  • A member of Parliament to Disraeli: "Sir, you will either die on the gallows or of some unspeakable disease." Disraeli responded, "That depends, sir, whether I embrace your policies or your mistress."
  • Walter Kerr: "He had delusions of adequacy."
  • Winston Churchill: "He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire."
  • Clarence Darrow: "I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure."
