Good stuff. There must be a collection of much more of these luscious tidbits somewhere all in one place? Non?

I wish I knew the exact quote and who said it, but...

"I am sitting in the smallest room in my house with your letter in front of me. Soon it will be behind me."

(think...)

Any insult by Shaw should be taken as a compliment. Great comeback by Churchill, though.

Dorothy Parker and H. L. Mencken were also masters of this, P. J. O'Rourke may be the current champ.

Your initials are those of my wife. But I know you are not she since I can hear her out in the kitchen making coffee. (How anybody can drink that foul fluid is beyond me. Yuk.)

In nineteenth-century England, there were two Members of Parliment ( whose names escape me ) who were bitter, contentious rivals. Years ago, I read of the following exchange on the floor between them:

'You, Sir! Will die either of Insanity or an Unspeakable Disease!'

"That, Sir, depends upon whether I embrace your policies- or your mistress..."

There was a long exchange in the U.S. Senate involving Stephen Douglas where another senator said that "no one with the upright form of man" would utter such "foul-smelling" words, "Will the Senator from Illinois please take notice?" to which Douglas said, "I will sir, and therefore will not imitate you."

How could they omit the interchange between Churchill and MP Bess Smith:

"Winston, you're drunk."
"Bess, you're ugly, and tomorrow, I shall be sober."
