More quotes by Winston Churchill
The only statistics you can trust are those you falsified yourself.
Winston Churchill
In war as in life, it is often necessary when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.
Winston Churchill
God alone knows how great it is. All I hope is that it is not too late. I am very much afraid that it is. We can only do our best.
Winston Churchill
We shall not fail or falter we shall not weaken or tire. Neither the sudden shock of battle, nor the long-drawn trials of vigilance and exertion will wear us down. Give us the tools and we will finish the job.
Winston Churchill
I was not the lion, but it fell to me to give the lion's roar.
Winston Churchill
We were not made by Nature to work, or even to play, from eight o'clock in the morning till midnight. We ought to break our days and our marches into two.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Our future is in our hands. Our lives are what we choose to make them.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic. They make frantic efforts to bar our thoughts and words they are afraid of the workings of the human mind.
Winston Churchill
Everybody stumbles across a golden opportunity at least once in a lifetime. Unfortunately most people just pick themselves up, dust themselves down, and walk away from it.
Winston Churchill
A love for tradition has never weakened a nation, indeed it has strengthened nations in their hour of peril.
Winston Churchill
I only believe in statistics that I doctored myself
Winston Churchill
There are two kinds of success-initial and ultimate.
Winston Churchill
To each there comes in their lifetime a special moment when they are figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to them and fitted to their talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which could have been their finest hour.
Winston Churchill
It is better to do something than to do nothing while waiting to do everything.
Winston Churchill
I'd rather be right than consistent.
Winston Churchill
Socialism would gather all power to the supreme party and party leaders, rising like stately pinnacles above their vast bureaucracies of civil servants no longer servants, no longer civil.
