Perhaps the most famous example of her wit is her damning review of Katherine Hepburn in a broadway play: "She ran the whole gamut of emotions, from A. to B.", but I quite like another less well-known one which was when someone challenged her to come up with a pun and to make things more difficult she had to use the word "horticulture".
