More quotes by Winston Churchill
Do not let spacious plans for a new world divert your energies from saving what is left of the old.
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
The person of truth must be covered with bodyguards of lies.
Winston Churchill
These are great days.
Winston Churchill
The Times is speechless, and takes three columns to express its speechlessness.
Winston Churchill
We must have a better word than prefabricated, why not ready-made?
Winston Churchill
I have not made any arrogant, confident, boasting predictions at all. On the contrary, I have stuck hard to my blood, toil, tears and sweat, to which I have added muddle and mismanagement, and that, to some extend I must admit, is what you have got out of it.
Winston Churchill
It may well be that we shall by a process of sublime irony have reached a state in this story where safety will be the sturdy child of terror, and survival the twin brother of annihilation.
Winston Churchill
Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.
Winston Churchill
All this contains much that is obviously true, and much that is relevant unfortunately, what is obviously true is not relevant, and what is relevant is not obviously true.
Winston Churchill
I am in favor of deliberately spreading methodically prepared bacteria among people and animals -- mildew ... to destroy the harvests, anthrax to destroy horses and livestock, and the plague, in order to kill not only entire armies, but also the inhabitants of large regions.
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
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you.
Winston Churchill
When you are on a great horse, you have the best seat you will ever have.
Winston Churchill
In time of war, soldiers, however sensible, care a great deal more on some occasions about slaking their thirst than about the danger of enteric fever. Better known as typhoid, the disease is often spread by drinking contaminated water.
Winston Churchill
I am a man of simple tastes-I am quite easily satisfied with the best of everything.
Winston Churchill
Not to have an adequate air force in the present state of the world is to compromise the foundations of national freedom and independence.
Winston Churchill
Never give in, never! Be it concerning large things or small things, never, never, never!
Winston Churchill
To achieve the extirpation of Nazi tyranny there are no lengths of violence to which we will not go.
