Quote

Watch your actions, they become your habits.
Winston Churchill
Image
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. Here was the new Koran of faith and war: turgid, verbose, shapeless, but pregnant with its message.

When you're 20 you care what everyone thinks, when you're 40 you stop caring what everyone thinks, when you're 60 you realize no one was ever thinking about you in the first place. You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Winston Churchill
Image
Let the children have their night of fun and laughter, let the gifts of Father Christmas delight their play. Let us grown-ups share to the full in their unstinted pleasures.
Winston Churchill
Image
I would tell myself that I was about to address the largest mass assembly of idiots ever gathered in the history of mankind.
Winston Churchill
Image
We shall defend every village, every town and every city. The vast mass of London itself, fought street by street, could easily devour an entire hostile army and we would rather see London laid in ruins and ashes than that it should be tamely and abjectly enslaved.
Winston Churchill
Image
Eating words has never given me indigestion.
Winston Churchill
Image
I began my education at a very early age in fact, right after I left college.
Winston Churchill
Image
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
Image
Baldwin often times stumbles over the truth, but he always picks himself up and hurries on as if nothing had happened.
Winston Churchill
Image
Their insatiable lust for power is only equaled by their incurable impotence in exercising it.
