More quotes by Winston Churchill
One evening at Chequers the film was Oliver Twist. Rufus, as usual, had the best seat in the house, on his master's lap. At the point when Bill Sikes was about to drown his dog to put the police off his track, Churchill covered Rufus's eyes with his hand. He said, Don't look now, dear. I'll tell you about it afterwards.
Winston Churchill

There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction.
Winston Churchill
Never stand so high upon a principle that you cannot lower it to suit the circumstances.
Winston Churchill
We are asking the nations of Europe between whom rivers of blood have flowed, to forget the feuds of a thousand years and work for the larger harmonies on which the future depends.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Time and the Ocean and some guiding star and High Cabal have made us what we are.
Winston Churchill
We must be very careful not to assign this deliverance the attributes of a victory. Wars are not won by evacuations
Winston Churchill
Our inheritance of well-founded, slowly conceived codes of honor, morals and manners, the passionate convictions which so many hundreds of millions share together of the principles of freedom and justice, are far more precious to us than anything which scientific discoveries could bestow.
Winston Churchill
It would be an inconvenient rule if nothing could be done until everything can be done.
Winston Churchill
The oldest habit in the world for resisting change is to complain that unless the remedy to the disease should be universally applied it should not be applied at all. But you must start somewhere.
Winston Churchill
War, which used to be cruel and magnificent has now become cruel and squalid.
Winston Churchill
Politics is not a game. It is an earnest business.
Winston Churchill
I neither want it [brandy] nor need it, but I should think it pretty hazardous to interfere with the ineradicable habit of a lifetime.
Winston Churchill
I am a sporting man. I always like to give trains and aeroplanes a fair chance of getting away.
