Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
No sky is heavy if the heart be light
Winston Churchill
Decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all-powerful to be impotent.
Winston Churchill
The V sign is the symbol of the unconquerable will of the occupied territories, and a portent of the fate awaiting the Nazi tyranny.
Winston Churchill
A modest little person, with much to be modest about.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
