'' your face reminds me of a toothache i once had...'' i think it's by jimmy durante... (corrections welcome)

[ohdear]

There's quite a few,although,as always,when I actually need to recall them,I can't remember a thing.

One of my favourite witty one's was Winston Churchills (I think anyway) that I imagine you are all familar with.

Woman:If you were my husband Id put poison in your drink.

Churchill:If you were my wife I'd drink it.

I can never think of anything like that when it matters.

Also the lyric from a Public Enemy song which simply goes "None of my hero's ever appeared on stamps",which I think is great and a sentiment and attititude lost in todays rap.Not that I'm a fan of that music anyway,so I could be wrong.
