WINSTON CHURCHILL AND MODESTY

Hello Again:

When Winston was Prime Minister, a member of the previous government castigated Winston for being too arrogant and over-confident.  He suggested that Winston would do well to copy his own style of modesty.   The man went on for almost half and hour chastising Mr. Churchill.

Finally he sat down and Winston took the floor.  His words were indeed laconic.  "My worthy opponent from the other side is indeed a modest man, but then again, he has much to be modest about."
