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.

More quotes by Winston Churchill
It is better to be frightened now than killed hereafter
Winston Churchill
Unless we establish some form of world government, it will not be possible for us to avert a World War III in the future.
Winston Churchill
It is not open to the cool bystander . . . to set himself up as an impartial judge of events which would never have occurred had he outstretched a helping hand in time.
Winston Churchill
This is no time for ease and comfort. It is time to dare and endure.
Winston Churchill
When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you.
Winston Churchill
One evening at Chequers the film was Oliver Twist. Rufus, as usual, had the best seat in the house, on his master's lap. At the point when Bill Sikes was about to drown his dog to put the police off his track, Churchill covered Rufus's eyes with his hand. He said, Don't look now, dear. I'll tell you about it afterwards.
Winston Churchill
Really I feel less keen about the Army every day. I think the Church would suit me better.
Winston Churchill
No one can guarantee success in war, but only deserve it.
Winston Churchill
One might as well legalise sodomy as recognise the Bolsheviks.
Winston Churchill
What is the true and original root of Dutch aversion to British rule? It is the abiding fear and hatred of the movement that seeks to place the native on a level with the white man ... the Kaffir is to be declared the brother of the European, to be constituted his legal equal, to be armed with political rights.
Winston Churchill
Well, dinner would have been splendid... if the wine had been as cold as the soup, the beef as rare as the service, the brandy as old as the fish, and the maid as willing as the Duchess.
Winston Churchill
Never flinch, never weary, never despair.
Winston Churchill
I have in my life concentrated more on self-expression than self-denial.
Winston Churchill
Old men make war, young men fight and die
Winston Churchill
I do not apologize for the takeover of the region by the Jews from the Palestinians in the same way I don't apologize for the takeover of America by the whites from the Red Indians or the takeover of Australia from the blacks. It is natural for a superior race to dominate an inferior one.
Winston Churchill
If you want a good argument against democracy, spend five minutes with a voter.
Winston Churchill
The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.
Winston Churchill
My greatest good fortune in a life of brilliant experiences has been to find you, and to lead my life with you. I don't feel far away from you out here at all. I feel very near in my heart and also I feel that the nearer I get to honour, the nearer I am to you.
Winston Churchill
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
Winston Churchill
No compromise with the main purpose no peace till victory no pact with unrepentant wrong.
Winston Churchill
