"A diplomat is a man who can tell you to go to hell and make the trip sound pleasurable" as said by Samuel Clemens. Another version is "A diplomat is a person who can tell you to go to hell in such a way that you actually look forward to the journey" by Caskie Stinnett
Besides the ever popular quotes by Sir Henry Wotton "A diplomat is an honest man sent abroad to lie for his country". The ambiguity of its meaning is open to anyone to interpret in their own way.
