Winston Churchill
Democracy means that when there's a knock in the door at 3 am, it's probably the milkman.
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
The Golcondas were considered incomparably the best team in Southern India ... [But] we defeated [them] by 9 goals to 3.

Winston Churchill
We shape our dwellings, and afterwards our dwellings shape us.
Winston Churchill
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
Winston Churchill
There is nothing government can give you that it hasn't taken from you in the first place.
Winston Churchill
