More quotes by Winston Churchill
We are all functioning at a small fraction of our capacity.
Winston Churchill
No socialist government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp or violently worded expressions of public discontent. They would have to fall back on some form of Gestapo, no doubt very humanly directed in the first instance.
Winston Churchill
It is more agreeable to have the power to give than to receive.
Winston Churchill
[My ideal of a good dinner] is to discuss good food, and, after this good food has been discussed, to discuss a good topic - with myself the chief conversationalist.
Winston Churchill
Never abandon life. There is a way out of everything except death.
Winston Churchill
In handing over the Government of India to these so-called political classes, we are handing over to men of straw, of whom, in a few years, no trace will remain.
Winston Churchill
The story of the human race is war. Except for brief and precarious interludes there has never been peace in the world and long before history began murderous strife was universal and unending.
Winston Churchill
Some men change their party for the sake of their principles others their principles for the sake of their party
Winston Churchill
When a new book appears one should read an old one.
Winston Churchill
For with primacy in power is also joined an awe inspiring accountability to the future.
Winston Churchill
England has been offered a choice between war and shame. She has chosen shame and will get war.
Winston Churchill
The Russian Bolsheviks have discovered that truth does not matter so long as there is reiteration. They have no difficulty whatever in countering a fact by a lie which, if repeated often enough and loudly enough, becomes accepted by the people.
Winston Churchill
Curse ruthless time! Curse our mortality. How cruelly short is the allotted span for all we must cram into it!
Winston Churchill
I was born under the Blue Ridge, and under that side which is blue in the evening light, in a wild land of game and forest and rushing waters.
Winston Churchill
A love for tradition has never weakened a nation, indeed it has strengthened nations in their hour of peril.
Winston Churchill
It is bad for a nation when it is without faith.
Winston Churchill
So long as I am acting from duty and conviction, I am indifferent to taunts and jeers. I think they will probably do me more good than harm.
Winston Churchill
You create your own universe as you go along.
Winston Churchill
The jury system has come to stand for all we mean by English justice. The scrutiny of 12 honest jurors provides defendants and plaintiffs alike a safeguard from arbitrary perversion of the law.
Winston Churchill
We shall not flag nor fail. We shall go on to the end.
Winston Churchill
