Above response was to John Montagu, Earl of Sandwich, by the political reformer John Wilkes.
As to Churchill:
Dowager at dinner party: Lieutenant, I care for neither your politics nor your moustache!
Young Lieutenant Churchill: Madame, you are unlikely to come into contact with either.
George Bernard Shaw: Am reserving two tickets for you for my premiere. Come and bring a friend - if you have one.
Churchill: Impossible to be present for the first performance. Will attend second - if there is one.
