An insult can be offensive and infuriating, but we've all had those moments where we just wish we had come up with a good one. Even better, having the
perfect comeback to one of these rude remarks brings us all the personal
satisfaction in the world. 1001 Insults, Put-downs, & Comebacks gathers together the very sharpest of these barbs from a wide variety of sources with some of the wickedest put-downs from the literary, political, and entertainment worlds, along with many others, including:
"He has become the oldest living cute boy in the world."
--Anna Quindlen on Paul McCartney
"I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it."--Groucho Marx
"When you go to the mind reader, do you get half price?"--David Letterman
Clare Booth Luce stood aside and gestured Dorothy Parker to precede her through a door, saying "Age before beauty." Parker swept on, saying only
"Pearls before swine."
"George Steinbrenner is the center of evil in the universe."
--Ben Affleck on the New York Yankees owner
