More quotes by Winston Churchill
Give me the facts, and I will twist them the way I want, to suit my argument.
Winston Churchill
We are waiting for the long-promised invasion. So are the fishes.
Winston Churchill
Eating words has never given me indigestion.
Winston Churchill
The element of the unexpected and the unforeseeable is what gives some of its relish to life and saves us from falling into the mechanical thralldom of the logicians.
Winston Churchill
Don't take 'no' for an answer, never submit to failure. Do not be fobbed off with mere personal success or acceptance. You will make all kinds of mistakes, but as long as you are generous and true, and also fierce, you cannot hurt the world or events.
Winston Churchill
The most important thing about education is appetite.
Winston Churchill
There is nothing government can give you that it hasn't taken from you in the first place.
Winston Churchill
With integrity, nothing else counts. Without integrity, nothing else counts.
Winston Churchill
Just to paint is great fun ... Try it if you have not done so - before you die.
Winston Churchill
If the British Empire is fated to pass from life into history, we must hope it will not be by the slow process of dispersion and decay, but in some supreme exertion for freedom, for right and for truth.
Winston Churchill
...every offensive lost its force as it proceeded. It was like throwing a bucket of water over the floor. It first rushed forward, then soaked forward, and finally stopped altogether until another bucket could be brought.
Winston Churchill
Watch your character for your character is your destiny.
Winston Churchill
English literature is a glorious inheritance which is open to all - there are no barriers, no coupons, and no restrictions. In the English language and in its great writers there are great riches and treasures, of which, of course, the Bible and Shakespeare stand along on the highest platform.
Winston Churchill
It is no use dealing with illusions and make-believes. We must look at the facts. The world ... is too dangerous for anyone to be able to afford to nurse illusions. We must look at realities.
Winston Churchill
Do you know why the nose of the bull dog is sloped backwards? So it can keep on breathing without ever letting go.
Winston Churchill
A single glass of champagne imparts a feeling of exhilaration. The nerves are braced the imagination is stirred, the wits become more nimble.
Winston Churchill
Well, dinner would have been splendid... if the wine had been as cold as the soup, the beef as rare as the service, the brandy as old as the fish, and the maid as willing as the Duchess.
Winston Churchill
No one should waste a day.
Winston Churchill
If you put two economists xin a room, you get two opinions, unless one of them is Lord Keynes, in which case you get three opinions.
Winston Churchill
This movement among the Jews is not new... This world-wide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily growing... It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the Nineteenth Century.
Winston Churchill
