How about another one from Churchill?
"I remember, when I was a child, being taken to the celebrated Barnum�s circus, which contained an exhibition of freaks and monstrosities, but the exhibit...which I most desired to see was the one described as �The Boneless Wonder�. My parents judged that that spectacle would be too revolting and demoralising for my youthful eyes, and I have waited 50 years to see the boneless wonder sitting on the Treasury Bench".
Referring to the Labour prime minister, Ramsey MacDonald. Speech, House of Commons, 28 Jan 1931
