Winston Churchill
There is more blood than paint upon these hands. All those thousands of men killed. We thought it would be a little job, and so it might have been if it had begun in the right way.
Winston Churchill
We do not covet anything from any nation except their respect.
Winston Churchill
You can always rely on America to do the right thing -- once it has exhausted the alternatives.
Winston Churchill
You do your worst, and we'll do our best.
Winston Churchill
All was there-the programme of German resurrection, the technique of party propaganda the plan for combating Marxism the concept of a National-Socialist State the rightful position of Germany at the summit ofthe world.
