Happy are the painters, for they shall not be lonely. Light and colour, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.
Winston Churchill
No matter. The dead bird does not leave the nest.
Winston Churchill
Victory is not final. Defeat is not failure. It's all about courage.
Winston Churchill
I have not become the Kings First Minister in order to preside over the liquidation of the British Empire.
Winston Churchill
There are two kinds of success-initial and ultimate.
Winston Churchill
An efficient and a successful administration manifests itself equally in small as in great matters.
Winston Churchill
Eating words has never given me indigestion.
Winston Churchill
It was my ambition all of my life to be master of the spoken word.
Winston Churchill
I do not apologize for the takeover of the region by the Jews from the Palestinians in the same way I don't apologize for the takeover of America by the whites from the Red Indians or the takeover of Australia from the blacks. It is natural for a superior race to dominate an inferior one.
Winston Churchill
Who's in or out, who moves the grand machine, Nor stirs my curiosity, or spleen Secrets of state no more I wish to know Than secret movements of a puppet-show Let but the puppets move, I've my desire, Unseen the hand which guides the master wire.
Winston Churchill
Never, never, never give up.
Winston Churchill
How fortunate it was for the world that when these great trials came upon it there was a generation that terror could not conquer and brutal violence could not enslave.
Winston Churchill
My ability to persuade my wife to marry me was quite my most brilliant achievement ... Of course, it would have been impossible for any ordinary man to have got through what I had to go through in peace and war without the devoted aid of what we call, in England, one's better half.
Winston Churchill
Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second... if there is one.
Winston Churchill
These cruel, wanton, indiscriminate bombings of London are, of course, a part of Hitler's invasion plans. He hopes, by killing large numbers of civilians, and women and children, that he will terrorise and cow the people of this mighty imperial city ... Little does he know the spirit of the British nation, or the tough fibre of the Londoners.
Winston Churchill
Historians are apt to judge war ministers less by the victories achieved under their direction than by the political results which flowed from them. Judged by that standard, I am not sure that I shall be held to have done very well.
Winston Churchill
I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this government: I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
Watch your habits, they determine your character.
Winston Churchill
When you have to kill a man, it costs nothing to be polite.
Winston Churchill
In handing over the Government of India to these so-called political classes, we are handing over to men of straw, of whom, in a few years, no trace will remain.
Winston Churchill
