   反驳帝的经典反驳

Winston Churchill makes this list again for a third time, proving him to truly be one of the world’s wittiest people. Attending a party in London, Churchill once again was drunk and intoxicated. An obviously extremely astute woman from Parliament, like Nancy Astor (the first entry), apparently was irritated by Churchill’s mannerisms.

温斯顿·丘吉尔第三次出现在我们的榜单中，证明了他真的是世界上最机智的人之一。一次在伦敦参加晚会，丘吉尔又一次喝得酩酊大醉。有一位像南茜·阿斯特一样极其聪明的国会女性，被丘吉尔的举止无状给激怒了。她走到丘吉尔面前叫道：“温斯顿，你喝多了！”丘吉尔也许是真的喝多了，但这明显不会影响他的认知功能。因为他简单回答道：

“You’re right Bessie, and you’re ugly. But tomorrow morning, I’ll be sober.”
“贝茜你说的对，还有，你长得真丑。不过明天早上我的酒就醒了。”
