These glorious insults are from an era in the English language before they were reduced to four-letter words:
The exchange between Churchill & Lady Astor:
She said, "If you were my husband, I'd give you poisoned Tea."
He answered, "If you were my wife, I'd drink it."
A member of Parliament to Prime Minister Disraeli: "Sir, you will either die on the gallows or of some unspeakable disease."
"That depends, Sir", said Disraeli, "whether I embrace your policies or your mistress."
