Lady Astor: Sir, if you were my husband, I would put poison in your coffee.

Winston Churchill: Madam, if I were your husband, I would drink it.

RESISTOR

Swear allegiance to the flag, whatever flag they offer;
Never hint at what you really feel.
Teach the children quietly for, someday, sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still.

Churchill also had great exchanges with George Bernard Shaw:

Shaw told Winston Churchill : "Have reserved two tickets for first night. Come and bring a friend if you have one."

Churchill responded, "Impossible to come to first night. Will come to second night, if you have one."
