Winston Churchill
I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact, if anything, I am the prod.
Winston Churchill
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
Winston Churchill
He looks like a female llama who has been surprised in the bath.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
