BURN!

Back in the day, insults had some bite. They were harsh and sharp, and often left those at the receiving end dumbfounded of how badly they just got burned. These witty wordsmiths of literature, politics, and comedy, had a stronger command of language than we do now, so the next time you need to verbally slap someone, take a cue from some of the greats!

Walter Kerr

“He had delusions of adequacy.” – Walter Kerr

Wisnton Churchill

“He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire.” – Winston Churchill

Groucho Marx

“I’ve had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn’t it.” – Groucho Marx

Jack E. Leonard

‘There’s nothing wrong with you that reincarnation won’t cure.’ – Jack E. Leonard

Oscar Wilde

“Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.” – Oscar Wilde

Mark Twain

“Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it?” – Mark Twain
