	The Wicked Wit Of Winston Churchill 'If Hitler invaded Hell, I would at least make a favourable reference to the Devil in the House of Commons.' WINSTON CHURCHILL Of Labour Party leader Clement Attlee - whom Churchill had once described as 'A sheep in sheep's clothing': 'He is a modest man with much to be modest about.' Proposing a toast to the Soviet leader at the Yalta conference in 1945: 'To Premier Stalin, whose foreign policy manifests a desire for peace.' Then, in a whispered aside out of the interpreter's hearing: 'A piece of Poland, a piece of Czechoslovakia, a piece of Romania...' On being urged by a British diplomat to flatter the Free French leader General de Gaulle (whom he described as looking 'like a female IIama who has just been surprised in her bath'): 'I'II kiss him on both cheeks - or if you prefer, on all four.' To a well- endowed American woman who wished him to know that she had got up at dawn and driven a hundred miles to attend the unveiling of his bust in Richmond, Virginia: 'Madam, I want you to know that I would happily reciprocate the honour.' 'If you give only one book of quotations ... The Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill is the best of the bunch. CHRISTOPHER MATTHEW, DAILY MAIL
