It may be that those whose work is their pleasure are those who most need the means of banishing it at intervals from their minds.
Winston Churchill
The Navy can lose us the war, but only the Air Force can win it. Therefore our supreme effort must be to gain overwhelming mastery in the Air. The Fighters are our salvation . . . but the Bombers alone provide the means of victory. . . . In no other way at present visible can we hope to overcome the immense military power of Germany.

Winston Churchill
If Hitler invaded Hell, I'd find something nice to say about the Devil himself.
Winston Churchill

All wisdom is not new wisdom.
Winston Churchill
In Russia a man is called reactionary if he objects to having his property stolen and his wife and children murdered.
Winston Churchill
We are happier in many ways when we are old than when we were young. The young sow wild oats. The old grow sage.
Winston Churchill
You must be prepared for further efforts of mind and body and further sacrifices to great causes, if you are not to fall back into the rut if inertia, the confusion of aim and the craven fear of being great.
Winston Churchill
War is mainly a catalogue of blunders.
Winston Churchill
The lights of Saxon England were going out, and in the gathering darkness a gentle, grey-beard prophet foretold the end. When on his death-bed Edward spoke of a time of evil that was coming upon the land his inspired mutterings struck terror into the hearers.
Winston Churchill
Renown awaits the commander who first restores artillery to its prime importance on the battlefield.
