More quotes by Winston Churchill
These are not dark days: these are great days - the greatest days our country has ever lived.
Winston Churchill
Nowadays we are assailed by a chorus of horrid threats. The Nazi Government exudes through every neutral State inside information of the frightful vengeance they are going to wreak upon us, and they also bawl it around the world by their leather-lunged propaganda machine. If words could kill, we should be dead already.
Winston Churchill
Still, it is the primary right of men to die and kill for the land they live in, and to punish with exceptional severity all members of their own race who have warmed their hands at the invaders' hearth.
Winston Churchill
What kind of people do they [the Japanese] think we are?
Winston Churchill
Soviet Union foreign policy is a puzzle inside a riddle wrapped in an enigma, and the key is Russian nationalism.
Winston Churchill
If two people agree on everything, one of them is unnecessary.
Winston Churchill
When you are going through hell, don't stop.
Winston Churchill
Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.
Winston Churchill
How I hated schools, and what a life of anxiety I lived there. I counted the hours to the end of every term, when I should return home.
Winston Churchill
We proceeded systematically, village by village and we destroyed the houses, filled up the wells, blew down the towers, cut down the shady trees, burned the crops and broke the reservoirs in punitive devastation.
Winston Churchill
Elections exist for the sake of the House of Commons and not the House of Commons for the sake of elections.
Winston Churchill
Nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without result.
Winston Churchill
In the course of my life, I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess that I have always found it a wholesome diet.
Winston Churchill
A good party man puts his party above himself and his country above his party.
Winston Churchill
Air power is the most difficult of military force to measure or even express in precise terms.
Winston Churchill
The destiny of man is not measured by material computations. When great forces are on the move in the world, we learn we’re spirits—not animals…. There’s something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty.
Winston Churchill
Air power can either paralyze the enemy's military action or compel him to devote to the defense of his bases and communications a share of his straitened resources far greater that what we need in the attack.
Winston Churchill
The story of the human race is war. Except for brief and precarious interludes there has never been peace in the world and long before history began murderous strife was universal and unending.
Winston Churchill
No two on earth in all things can agree. All have some daring singularity.
Winston Churchill
Twice in my lifetime the long arm of destiny has reached across the oceans and involved the entire life and manhood of the United States in a deadly struggle.There was no use in saying We don't want it we won
Winston Churchill
