Winston Churchill
How I hated this school, and what a life of anxiety I lived there for more than two years.

Winston Churchill
Indeed I do not think we should be justified in using any but the more sombre tones and colours while our people, our Empire, and indeed the whole English-speaking world are passing through a dark and deadly valley.
Winston Churchill
Never engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
Winston Churchill
