More quotes by Winston Churchill
The only thing that ever really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril.
Winston Churchill
Sure I am of this, that you have only to endure to conquer. You have only to persevere to save yourselves, and to save all those who rely upon you. You have only to go right on, and at the end of the road, be it short or long, victory and honor will be found.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
The English never draw a line without blurring it.

Winston Churchill
Why should there not be a European group which could give a sense of enlarged patriotism and common citizenship to the distracted peoples of this turbulent and mighty continent? And why should it not take its rightful place with other great groupings and help to shape the onward destinies of men?
Winston Churchill
The short words are best, and the old words, when short, are the best of all.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Madam, if you were my wife, I would drink it.
Winston Churchill
Air power is the most difficult of military force to measure or even express in precise terms.
Winston Churchill
Here life itself, life at its best and healthiest, awaits the caprice of the bullet. Let us see the development of the day. All else may stand over, perhaps for ever. Existence is never so sweet as when it is at hazard.
Winston Churchill
Nothing is perfect on the human stage.
Winston Churchill
I wonder whether any other generation has seen such astounding revolutions of data and values as those through which we have lived. Scarcely anything material or established which I was brought up to believe was permanent and vital, has lasted. Everything I was sure or taught to be sure was impossible, has happened.
Winston Churchill
One evening at Chequers the film was Oliver Twist. Rufus, as usual, had the best seat in the house, on his master's lap. At the point when Bill Sikes was about to drown his dog to put the police off his track, Churchill covered Rufus's eyes with his hand. He said, Don't look now, dear. I'll tell you about it afterwards.
