They're pretty mild compared to composers' insults of critics.
Like this acerbic toilet attack from Max Reger:
"I am sitting in the smallest room of my house. I have your review before me. In a moment, it will be behind me!". (In reply to Rudolf Louis's review of his Sinfonietta, Op.90)
If music be the food of love, play on!

I've always enjoyed the one about the teacher - whose identity varies in the telling - being brought a Funeral March On The Death of Beethoven. When he's listened to it through, he says to the student:
"Frankly, I wish you were dead and Beethoven were writing the funeral march."
"Nine? Too late."

I mostly got dinner ideas out of that quiz.
I think I need to study my Italian composers a little better.

Galassini... that's a composer, right? But what did I order last night at Zeferilli's? I don't know...
