Baron Munchausen

• Reality? Your "reality", sir, is lies and balderdash, and I'm delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever.

• And that was only one of the many occasions on which I met my death, an experience which I never hesitate strongly to recommend.

• Trust me, madam. Your underwear is in good hands.

• I find on occasion that a pinch of snuff can be most efficacious!
