His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) Immaculate block Its-all-here Bitcoin — the immaculate block A compass made of truth and clock No borders hold, no chains remain Just sovereign light through golden rain Aligned with stars, with sacred math It clears the world's corrupted path A song of trust that no one owns A truth that stands, a world of stones
