More quotes by Winston Churchill
The game of life does not proceed like a mathematical calculation on the principle that two and two make four. Sometimes they make five, or minus four, and sometimes the blackboard topples over in the middle of the sum and the pedagogue is left with a black eye.
Winston Churchill
I had no idea of the enormous and unquestionably helpful part that humbug plays in the social life of great peoples dwelling in a state of democratic freedom.
Winston Churchill
To meet Roosevelt with all his buoyant sparkle, his iridescence, was like opening a bottle of champagne.
Winston Churchill
If you go on with this nuclear arms race, all you are going to do is make the rubble bounce.
Winston Churchill
If this long island story of ours is to end at last, let it end only when each one of us lies, choking in his own blood upon the ground.
Winston Churchill
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
Maybe when it seems the entire world is shouting no!

Winston Churchill
If we could get out of this jam by giving up Malta and Gibraltar and some African colonies I would jump at it. But the only safe way is to convince Hitler that he cannot beat us.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Don't be content to be the chip off the old block - be the old block itself.
Winston Churchill
Politics is not a game. It is an earnest business.
Winston Churchill
Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong - these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history.
Winston Churchill
The tank was originally invented to clear a way for the infantry in the teeth of machine-gun fire. Now it is the infantry who will have to clear a way for the tanks.
Winston Churchill
You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than live as slaves.
Winston Churchill
No two on earth in all things can agree. All have some daring singularity.
Winston Churchill
I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.
Winston Churchill
Don't mind the five or more million Germans. Stalin will see to them they will cease to exist.
Winston Churchill
Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the object worship of the state.
Winston Churchill
If you want a good argument against democracy, spend five minutes with a voter.
Winston Churchill
