If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

More quotes by Winston Churchill
Nature has not intended mankind to work from eight in the morning until midnight without that refreshment of blessed oblivion which, even if it only lasts twenty minutes, is sufficient to renew all the vital forces.
Winston Churchill
The dictator, in all his pride, is held in the grip of his party machine. He can go forward he cannot go back. He must blood his hounds and show them sport, or else, like Actaeon of old, be devoured by them. All-strong without, he is all-weak within.
Winston Churchill
The main vice of capitalism is the uneven distribution of prosperity. The main vice of socialism is the even distribution of misery.
Winston Churchill
Here is a law which is above the King and which even he must not break. This reaffirmation of a supreme law and its expression in a general charter is the great work of Magna Carta and this alone justifies the respect in which men have held it
Winston Churchill
Nothing is perfect on the human stage.
Winston Churchill
The day may dawn when fair play, love for one's fellow men, respect for justice and freedom, will enable tormented generations to march forth serene and triumphant from the hideous epoch in which we have to dwell. Meanwhile, never flinch, never weary, never despair.
Winston Churchill
One day President Roosevelt told me that he was asking publicly for suggestions about what the war should be called. I said at once 'The Unnecessary War'.
Winston Churchill
We are plunged in a long and grievous struggle. But all will come right if we all work together to the end.
Winston Churchill
If you cannot read all your books, at any rate handle them, and, as it were, fondle them. Let them fall open where they will. Make a voyage of discovery, taking soundings of uncharted seas.
Winston Churchill
There is no finer investment for any community than putting milk into babies.
Winston Churchill
For my part, I consider that it will be found much better by all parties to leave the past to history, especially as I propose to write that history myself.
Winston Churchill
It has not fallen to your lot to command great armies. You had to create them, organize them and inspire them.
Winston Churchill
We are shaping the world faster than we can change ourselves, and we are applying to the present the habits of the past.
Winston Churchill
One ought to be just before one is generous
Winston Churchill
When you get a thing the way you want it, leave it alone.
Winston Churchill
God for a month of power & a good shorthand writer.
Winston Churchill
No compromise with the main purpose no peace till victory no pact with unrepentant wrong.
Winston Churchill
It is not enough that we do our best sometimes we must do what is required.
Winston Churchill
If you cannot read all your books...fondle them---peer into them, let them fall open where they will, read from the first sentence that arrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your own hands, arrange them on your own plan so that you at least know where they are. Let them be your friends let them, at any rate, be your acquaintances.
Winston Churchill
Old men make war, young men fight and die
Winston Churchill
