RE: Who's the Boss..Truth now - Mad Baron - 02-01-2007 RE: Who's the Boss..Truth now - Tanker - 02-03-2007 Both have been attributed to Sir Winston while speaking with Lady Astor. Sounds typical of both gentlemen. RE: Who's the Boss..Truth now - Extraordinarius - 02-03-2007 The first exchange was apparently between Nancy Astor and Sir Winston before many witnesses. See- http://www.winstonchurchill.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=388#poison RE: Who's the Boss..Truth now - Kelen - 02-04-2007 Yep first one is Churchill and Astor, see, http://www.famousquotes.me.uk/churchill_winston/32.htm 2nd one is Chruchill and Bessie Braddock, see http://www.famousquotes.me.uk/churchill_winston/28.htm. Another of his quotes that I wish my troops would adhear to; "One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half."
