Winston Churchill
It is better to be frightened now than killed hereafter
Winston Churchill
I cannot pretend to be impartial about the colours. I rejoice with the brilliant ones, and am genuinely sorry for the poor browns.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
It is wonderful what great strides can be made when there is a resolute purpose behind them.
Winston Churchill
My conclusion on Freewill and predestination- they are identical.
Winston Churchill
When I was younger I made it a rule never to take strong drink before lunch. It is now my rule never to do so before breakfast.
Winston Churchill
The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.
