Winston Churchill
In Critical and baffling situations, it is always best to return to first principle and simple action
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Sure I am of this, that you have only to endure to conquer.
Winston Churchill
You ought to let the Jews have Jerusalem it is they who made it famous.
Winston Churchill
I am writing in one of the Keepers' Lodges to wh I have returned after stalking & where I am waiting for the Prince of Wales. Quite the best day's sport I have had in this country - 4 good stags & home early!
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
I no longer listen to what people say, I just watch what they do. Behavior never lies.
Winston Churchill
Praise the humanities, my boy. That'll make them think you're broadminded!
Winston Churchill
Young people at universities study to achieve knowledge and not to learn a trade. We must all learn how to support ourselves, but we must also learn how to live. We need a lot of engineers in the modern world, but we do not want a world of modern engineers.
Winston Churchill
War, which used to be cruel and magnificent has now become cruel and squalid.
Winston Churchill
The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you can see.
