xx A riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma known as ...
October 27, 2008, 03:55:31 PM by combinator
...  Russia. 

Winston Churchill said it and I believe it.  More English words, phrases, idioms, meaning, etymologies here:

http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/31000.html

or, if you're looking for Shakespeare, sure as Birnam wood Do come to Dunsinane, the Bard doth cometh to www.ShakespeareanWorks.com.

Shakespearean insults may be all well and good but you can't fully comprehend them without the context of British trash barrel humor or Cockney Rhyming Slang.  Best give it a look before you get down to the nitty-gritty or syphon the python.
