More quotes by Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
One ought to be just before one is generous
Winston Churchill

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.
Winston Churchill
Armed with a paint-box, one cannot be bored, one cannot be left at a loose end, one cannot 'have several days on one's hands.
Winston Churchill
The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.
Winston Churchill
Out of the depths of sorrow and sacrifice will be born again the glory of mankind.
Winston Churchill
Dictators ride to and fro upon tigers which they dare not dismount. And the tigers are getting hungry.
Winston Churchill
There is no merit in putting off a war for a year if, when it comes, it is far worse or much harder to win.
Winston Churchill
