- Mark Twain

"I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play; bring a friend.... if you have one."
- George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill

"Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second.... if there is one."
- Winston Churchill, in response.

"He is a self-made man and worships his creator."

- Irvin S. Cobb
