More quotes by Winston Churchill
If you find a job you love, you'll never work again.
Winston Churchill
I look like a down-and-out drunk who has been picked out of the gutter in the Strand.
Winston Churchill
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
He sees with amazement that our defeats are but the stepping stones to victory and that all his victories are stepping stones to ruin. It was apparent to me that this bad man saw quite clearly the shadow of slowly and remorselessly approaching doom, and he railed at fortune for mocking him with the glitter of fleeting success.
Winston Churchill
I have consistently urged my friends to abstain from reading it.
Winston Churchill
Is the only lesson of history to be that mankind is unteachable?
Winston Churchill
If you simply take up the attitude of defending a mistake, there will no hope of improvement.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
The way to achieve happiness is to try for perfection that is impossible to achieve, and spend the rest of your life trying to achieve it.
Winston Churchill
Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an ever smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose
Winston Churchill
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
Winston Churchill
The worst mistake that a statesman can make is to promise victory and to see it dashed, the hopes dashed.
Winston Churchill
I have not made any arrogant, confident, boasting predictions at all. On the contrary, I have stuck hard to my blood, toil, tears and sweat, to which I have added muddle and mismanagement, and that, to some extend I must admit, is what you have got out of it.
Winston Churchill
We shall show mercy, but we shall not ask for it.
Winston Churchill
My mother made a brilliant impression upon my childhood life. She shone for me like the evening star.
Winston Churchill
Democracy means that if the doorbell rings in the early hours, it is likely to be the milkman.
Winston Churchill
The Government of India had imprisoned Mr. Gandhi and they had been sitting outside his cell door begging him to help them out of their difficulties.
Winston Churchill
Safety and certainty in oil lie in variety, and variety alone.
Winston Churchill
I'd rather spend half an hour in the company of a top carpenter, than three hours in the company of an average brain surgeon
Winston Churchill
To improve is to change to be perfect is to change often.
Winston Churchill
