Greatest insults

Anybody have any good ones?

'He has never been known to use a word that might send a reader to the
dictionary.'
-- William Faulkner (about Ernest Hemingway)

'I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved
of it.'
-- Mark Twain

'He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends.'
-- Oscar Wilde

'I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play; bring a
friend... If you have one.'
-- George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill ...
followed by Churchill's response: "I cannot possibly attend first night,
will attend second, if there is one.'
-- Winston Churchill

'I feel so miserable without you; it's almost like having you here.'
-- Stephen Bishop

'Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on
it?'
-- Mark Twain

'His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork.'
-- Mae West

'Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.'
-- Oscar Wilde

Lady Astor once remarked to Winston Churchill at a Dinner Party,
'Winston, if you were my husband, I would poison your coffee!' Winston
replied, 'Madam if I were your husband I would drink it!'

Lady Astor looked at Churchill and said, 'Sir, you are drunk!' He
replied, 'And Madam, you are ugly. At least in the morning I'll be
sober.'
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

Lieutenant X has nothing to say, but many ways of saying it...



In some cases this could be a compliment
"America will never be destroyed from the outside,
if we falter and lose our freedoms,
it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
