More quotes by Winston Churchill

Image
You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.
Winston Churchill
Image
Remember the story of the Spanish prisoner. For many years he was confined in a dungeon... One day it occurred to him to push the door of his cell. It was open and it had never been locked.
Winston Churchill
Image
Just as the sentence contains one idea in all its fullness, so the paragraph should embrace a distinct episode and as sentences should follow one another in harmonious sequence, so paragraphs must fit into another like the automatic couplings of railway carriages.
Winston Churchill
Image
Science should be on tap, not on top.
Winston Churchill
Image
Mountaintops inspire leaders but valleys mature them.
Winston Churchill
Image
It is remarkable that Lord Esher should be so much astray...We must conclude that an uncontrollable fondness for fiction forbade him to forsake it for fact. Such constancy is a defect in an historian.
Winston Churchill
Image
It is no use dealing with illusions and make-believes. We must look at the facts. The world ... is too dangerous for anyone to be able to afford to nurse illusions. We must look at realities.
Winston Churchill
Image
I have never promised anything but blood, tears, toil and sweat. Now, however we have a new experience. We have a victory - a remarkable and definite victory. The bright gleam has caught the helmets of our soldiers and warmed and cheered all our hearts.
Winston Churchill
Image
My hand seemed arrested by a silent veto.
Winston Churchill
Image
An old battleax of a woman said to Winston Churchill, If you were my husband I would put poison in your tea. Churchill's response, Ma'am if you were my wife I would drink it.
Winston Churchill
Image
I felt as if I were walking with destiny, and that all my past life had been but a preparation for this hour and for this trial... I thought I knew a good deal about it all, I was sure I should not fail.
Winston Churchill
Image
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
Winston Churchill
Image
The trade unions are a long-established and essential part of our national life. We take our stand by these pillars of our British society as it has gradually developed and evolved itself, of the right of individual labouring men to adjust their wages and conditions by collective bargaining, including the right to strike.
Winston Churchill
Image
Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.
Winston Churchill
Image
Your greatest fears are created by your imagination. Don't give in to them.
Winston Churchill
Image
We shall defend every village, every town and every city. The vast mass of London itself, fought street by street, could easily devour an entire hostile army and we would rather see London laid in ruins and ashes than that it should be tamely and abjectly enslaved.
Winston Churchill
Image
To try to be safe everywhere is to be strong nowhere.
Winston Churchill
Image
Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.
Winston Churchill
Image
There are no people in the world who are so slow to develop hostile feelings against a foreign country as the Americans, and no people who, once estranged, are more difficult to win back.
Winston Churchill
Image
No more let us alter or falter or palter. From Malta to Yalta, and Yalta to Malta.
