I stumbled upon this the other day and couldn’t stop laughing:
Little confession: I was a bit of a nerd in school and memorised whole passages of Macbeth word-for-word. I’m quite feather-headed when it comes to any kind of useful information, but for some reason this has stuck with me and I still remember.
Also, some other brilliant insults by famous people throughout history (that my Dad will love):
I didn’t attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it - Mark Twain
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. (To which Churchill replied) Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second… if there is one.
He has Van Gogh’s ear for music - Billy Wilder
He has delusions of adequacy - Walter Kerr

“He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire.”—Winston Churchill
“I’ve had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn’t it ”—Groucho Marx
