George Bernard Shaw and Winston Churchill had an infamous animosity. Shaw was a socialist and a vegitarian. And Churchill was, well, Churchill. They hated the very spit out of each other. Anyway the joke goes like this:
George Bernard Shaw once gave Winston Churchill a pair of tickets for the opening night of his Pygmalion and remarked, "Bring a friend -- if you have one."
Churchill, unflustered, responded, "Matters of the state prevent me from attending the premiere, but I'll be there for the second night -- if you have one."
it kills me.
