My rule of life prescribed as an absolutely sacred rite smoking cigars and also the drinking of alcohol before, after and if need be during all meals and in the intervals between them.
Winston Churchill
Image
If Hitler invaded Hell, I'd find something nice to say about the Devil himself.
Winston Churchill
Image
I no longer listen to what people say, I just watch what they do. Behavior never lies.
Winston Churchill
Image
This is no war of chieftains or of princes, of dynasties or national ambition it is a war of peoples and of causes. There are vast numbers, not only in this Island but in every land, who will render faithful service in this war, but whose names will never be known, whose deeds will never be recorded. This is a War of the Unknown Warriors
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Image

Winston Churchill
Image
No one ever came to grief-except honorable grief-through riding horses. No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle. Young men have often been ruined through owning horses, or through backing horses, but never through riding them unless of course they break their necks, which, taken at a gallop, is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
Image
I'm bored with it all. Before slipping into a coma. He died 9 days later.
Winston Churchill
Image
There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction.
Winston Churchill
Image
During their lifetimes, every man and woman will stumble across a great opportunity. Sadly, most of them will simply pick themselves up, dust themselves down and carry on as if nothing ever happened.
Winston Churchill
Image
Civilisation will not last, freedom will not survive, peace will not be kept, unless a very large majority of mankind unite together to defend them and show themselves possessed of a constabulary power before which barbaric and atavistic forces will stand in awe.

The length of this document defends it well against the risk of its being read.
Winston Churchill

I'm too busy. I have no time for worry.
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.
