A cynic is what an idealist calls a realist

Experimenting with graphing '* is what a(n) * calls a(n) *" relationships.

'A cynic is what an idealist calls a realist' (Sir Humphrey Appleby, 'Yes, Minister').

Also found on the interwebs:
'A cynic is what an idealist calls a realist'
and 'A pessimist is what an optimist calls a realist'

I think B works better than A, because you learn more from it (look at A and tell me which two people call the realist a cynic. You have to read all the labeled edges).
