My mother made a brilliant impression upon my childhood life. She shone for me like the evening star.
Winston Churchill
I look like a down-and-out drunk who has been picked out of the gutter in the Strand.
Winston Churchill
Building slow destroyers ! One might as well breed slow race horses.
Winston Churchill
Say what you have to say and the first time you come to a sentence with a grammatical ending - sit down.
Winston Churchill
There comes a precious moment in all of our lives when we are tapped on the shoulder and offered the opportunity to do something very special that is unique to us and our abilities, what a tragedy it would be if we are not ready or willing.
Winston Churchill
Anyone who is not a liberal in his youth has no heart. Anyone who remains so as he matures has no brain!
Winston Churchill
In Success you deserve it and in defeat, you need it.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
When Iraq becomes strong enough in our opinion to stand alone, we shall be in a position to state that our task has been fulfilled, and that Iraq is an independent sovereign state.

Winston Churchill
In time of war, soldiers, however sensible, care a great deal more on some occasions about slaking their thirst than about the danger of enteric fever. Better known as typhoid, the disease is often spread by drinking contaminated water.
Winston Churchill
May it not also be that the cause of civilization itself will be defended by the skill and devotion of a few thousand airmen? There never has been, I suppose, in all the world, in all the history of war, such an opportunity for youth. The Knights of the Round Table, the Crusaders, all fall back into the past.
Winston Churchill
When I warned them [the French] that Britain would fight on alone whatever they did, their generals told their Prime Minister and his divided Cabinet, In three weeks England will have her neck wrung like a chicken. Some chicken! Some neck!
Winston Churchill
Nobody wants to intervene in Russian affairs. Russia is a very large country, a very old country, a very disagreeable country inhabited by immense numbers of ignorant people largely possessed of lethal weapons and in a state of extreme disorder. Also Russia is a long way off.
Winston Churchill
History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.
Winston Churchill
If a woman has It, she doesn't need anything else but if she doesn't have It, it doesn't matter what else she has.
Winston Churchill
I do not see any other way of realizing our hopes about World Organization in five or six days. Even the Almighty took seven.
Winston Churchill
