Really I feel less keen about the Army every day. I think the Church would suit me better.
Winston Churchill

Victory is the beautiful, bright-colored flower. Transport is the stem without which it could never have blossomed.
Winston Churchill
Image
Immense deposits of kimmeridge clay, containing the oil-bearing bands or seams, stretch across England from Dorsetshire to Lincolnshire. [An early political recognition of the native resource. The Geological Survey had identified the inflammable oil shale in reports since at least 1888.]
Winston Churchill
Image
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
Image
Nobody wants to intervene in Russian affairs. Russia is a very large country, a very old country, a very disagreeable country inhabited by immense numbers of ignorant people largely possessed of lethal weapons and in a state of extreme disorder. Also Russia is a long way off.

When you get a thing the way you want it, leave it alone.

Image
May it not also be that the cause of civilization itself will be defended by the skill and devotion of a few thousand airmen? There never has been, I suppose, in all the world, in all the history of war, such an opportunity for youth. The Knights of the Round Table, the Crusaders, all fall back into the past.

It is more agreeable to have the power to give than to receive.
Winston Churchill

The whole history of the world is summed up in the fact that, when nations are strong, they are not always just, and when they wish to be just, they are no longer strong.
Winston Churchill
Image
The most beautiful voice in the world is that of an educated Southern woman.
Winston Churchill
Image
There was a man who sold a hyena skin while the beast still lived and who was killed in hunting it.
Winston Churchill
Image
When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened
Winston Churchill
Image
We must have a better word than prefabricated, why not ready-made?
Winston Churchill
Image
No one ever came to grief-except honorable grief-through riding horses. No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle. Young men have often been ruined through owning horses, or through backing horses, but never through riding them unless of course they break their necks, which, taken at a gallop, is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
Image
The United States stands at the pinnacle of world power. This is a solemn moment for the American democracy. For with primacy in power is joined an awe-inspiring accountability for the future.

When I get to heaven I mean to spend a considerable portion of my first million years in painting, and so get to the bottom of the subject.

Without victory there is no survival!

...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.
