Guess Who's Quoted

One Friday morning, a teacher came up with a novel way to motivate her class. She told them that she would read a quote and the first student to correctly identify who said it would receive the rest of the day off.

She started with "This was England's finest hour." Little Suzy instantly jumped up and said, "Winston Churchill."

"Congratulations, you may go home," said the teacher.

The teacher then said, "Ask not what your country can do for you." Before she was able to finish, another young lady exclaimed, "John F. Kennedy."

"Very good, you may go."

Irritated that he had missed two golden opportunities, Little Johnny said, "I wish those girls would just shut up."

Upon overhearing this comment, the upset teacher demanded to know who said it.

Johnny instantly rose to his feet and said, "Bill Clinton, I'll see you on Monday."
