As a native of the USA married to a native of the Netherlands, my favorite
is this:
"What do you call someone who speaks two languages?" Answer: "Bilingual".
"What do you call someone who speaks one language?" Answer: "An American".

David,
You are right. There is some confusion about who said it
first. I thought George Bernard Shaw said it first, but my
good friend G4WIF insists it was Churchill. I fear he may
be right! But whoever said it was very astute!
