More quotes by Winston Churchill
If you go on with this nuclear arms race, all you are going to do is make the rubble bounce.
Winston Churchill
Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.
Winston Churchill
Hatred plays the same part in government as acid in chemistry.
Winston Churchill
If you put two economists xin a room, you get two opinions, unless one of them is Lord Keynes, in which case you get three opinions.
Winston Churchill
The United States is a land of free speech. Nowhere is speech freer - not even here where we sedulously cultivate it even in its most repulsive form.
Winston Churchill
With integrity, nothing else counts. Without integrity, nothing else counts.
Winston Churchill
Logic is a poor guide compared with custom.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
The game of life does not proceed like a mathematical calculation on the principle that two and two make four. Sometimes they make five, or minus four, and sometimes the blackboard topples over in the middle of the sum and the pedagogue is left with a black eye.
Winston Churchill
It is a mistake to look too far ahead. Only one link of the chain of destiny can be handled at a time.
Winston Churchill
There is no purpose in living where there is nothing to do.
Winston Churchill
I always avoid prophesying beforehand, because it is a much better policy to prophesy after the event has already taken place.
Winston Churchill
There is no finer investment for any community than putting milk into babies.
Winston Churchill
Our inheritance of well-founded, slowly conceived codes of honor, morals and manners, the passionate convictions which so many hundreds of millions share together of the principles of freedom and justice, are far more precious to us than anything which scientific discoveries could bestow.
