More quotes by Winston Churchill
Out of intense complexities, intense simplicities emerge
Winston Churchill
Those who plan do better than those who do not plan, even should they rarely stick to their plan.
Winston Churchill
The era of procrastination, of half-measures, of soothing and baffling expedients, of delays is coming to its close. In its place we are entering a period of consequences.
Winston Churchill
Historians are apt to judge war ministers less by the victories achieved under their direction than by the political results which flowed from them. Judged by that standard, I am not sure that I shall be held to have done very well.
Winston Churchill
If I had my way, I would write the word 'insure' over every door of every cottage and upon the blotting pad of every public man, because I am convinced that, for sacrifice that are conceivably small, families can be secured against catastrophes which otherwise would smash them forever.
Winston Churchill
Never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
Winston Churchill
...the high roads of the future will be clear, not only for us but for all, not only for our time but for a century to come.
Winston Churchill
Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl - no superior alternative has yet been found.
Winston Churchill
The power of the Executive to cast a man into prison without formulating any charge known to the law and particularly to deny him the judgement of his peers is in the highest degree odious and is the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist.
Winston Churchill
Praise the humanities, my boy. That'll make them think you're broadminded!
Winston Churchill
He is like a female llama surprised in her bath.
Winston Churchill
It may well be that we shall by a process of sublime irony have reached a state in this story where safety will be the sturdy child of terror, and survival the twin brother of annihilation.
Winston Churchill
History is written by the victors.
Winston Churchill
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
Winston Churchill
Painting a picture is like trying to fight a battle.
Winston Churchill
The only thing that ever really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril.
Winston Churchill
The water was not fit to drink. To make it palatable, we had to add whisky. By diligent effort, I learned to like it.
Winston Churchill
A man who gets the reputation of rising at dawn can sleep to noon.
Winston Churchill
The main vice of capitalism is the uneven distribution of prosperity. The main vice of socialism is the even distribution of misery.
Winston Churchill
We shall fight in parking lots, we shall fight in empty fields and on wide streets, we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
