Winston Churchill
If you don't take change by the hand, it will take you by the throat.

Winston Churchill
Democracy means that when there's a knock in the door at 3 am, it's probably the milkman.
Winston Churchill
The rhinoceros stood ... about five hundred yards away ... not a twentieth-century animal at all, but an odd, grim straggler from the Stone Age.
