Ghandi comes to mind.

I think it would be a wonderful idea.

when asked what he thought about western civilization.

Groucho Marx - do I even gotta give an example?

I always forget about Diogenes. Didn't he once, when asked what the man could do for him, tell the Emperor at the time something like, "yes, you can move, you're blocking my sunlight..." ?

Also a side note since you mentioned Groucho - I think you should look into the Algonquin round table

Better caricature here. Leave it to wiki to delete this off the main page...

My favorite is Dorothy Parker on the left with the shit-eating grin. A shit-poster if ever there was. Coined the phrase "What fresh hell is this??"
