A Book Of Insult

By: Greenman, Barbara

Winston, you're drunk. Bessie, you're ugly, but I'll be sober in the morning.: an exchange between Winston Churchill and Bessie Braddock, a Labour MP. A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, mincing heap of mother love.: William Connor (about Liberace). Nixon's motto was: If two wrongs don't make a right, try three - Norman Cousins. Insults directed at somebody else have always given pleasure. From Martial to masters of the modern put down, the best insults have been carefully garnered for inclusion in this book. Some are chilling in their icy disdain whilst others are so politically incorrect as require a health warning.
