One day, the Churchill couple walked through a posh neighborhood in London. People greeted and exchanged words with the Prime Minister. A street sweeper, on the other hand, greeted Mrs. Churchill in particular, and the two stayed aside for a while in a familiar conversation. Churchill then asked his wife what she had had to discuss with a street sweeper for so long. “Ah… he was in love with me a long time ago,” she said.
Churchill smiled and said, “You see, if you had married him, you would be the wife of a street sweeper today.” Mrs. Churchill looked at her husband in amazement and said the legendary words: “But no Darling, if I had married him, he would be Prime Minister today.”
