Winston Churchill was eating a bowl of soup when his butler informed him that French President de Gaulle wanted to speak to him on the phone. He returned to the table simmering with rage. "Bloody de
Gaulle. He had the impertinence to tell me that the French regard him as the reincarnation of Joan of Arc,"he said. "I found it necessary to remind him that we burned the first one."邱吉尔有一次在喝汤,管家走来说法国总统戴高乐要跟他通电话。他回到餐桌时,七窍生烟,说:「戴高乐这匹夫真狂妄,居然告诉我法国人视他为圣贞德再世。我不能不提醒他说,第一个圣贞德被我们烧了。」

【解说】英法两国的百年战争(HundredYearsWar1337-1453)中,法国农家少女圣贞德率领国民抗英,不幸被俘,死于火刑。第二次世界大战期间,法国沦陷,戴高乐将军逃到英国,号召国民继续抗德,一九四四年盟军登陆诺曼第,戴高乐随即回到巴黎,获国民热烈欢迎,战后更当选总统。
