The story is told that Winston Churchill once said, “I took a taxi one day and went to the #BBC office for an interview. When I arrived, I told the driver to wait for me for forty minutes until I got back! But the driver apologized and said, “I can’t because I have to go home to listen to Winston Churchill’s speech.”
Churchill says he was amazed and delighted with the cab driver’s desire to listen to his conversation! So, Churchill gave ten pounds to the driver without telling him who he really was.
The driver promptly pocketed the money and said: “I’ll wait hours until you come back, sir! And let Churchill go to hell!”
