But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man - for precisely the same reasons."
-Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams

something that i got from my memory with no names attached:

I like that one too.

That quip is usually attributed (with the gender roles reversed, obviously) to Winston Churchill.

See http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Transwiki: ... _Churchill

Nancy Astor once told him [Churchill] "If I were your wife I'd poison your coffee," to which Churchill replied: "If I were your husband, madam, I would drink it."
