Winston Churchill, the famous British Prime Minister, was known for his wit and quick responses. Once, during a formal dinner, Churchill excused himself to use the restroom. On his way back, a political rival who disliked Churchill sarcastically remarked, “Churchill, we are very much missing your presence.”
Without missing a beat, Churchill replied, “I know. That’s why I went, to give nature a chance to catch up with you!”
The room burst into laughter, and Churchill’s rival was left speechless. This story has been shared for years as an example of Churchill’s sharp sense of humor and quick thinking.
