More quotes by Winston Churchill
Men often stumble onto the truth but then quickly dust themselves off and hurry away.
Winston Churchill
The poor girl does not know how to have a conversation. Unfortunately, she does know how to speak.
Winston Churchill
I do not believe there is the slightest chance of war with Japan in our lifetime. The Japanese are our allies.... Japan is at the other end of the world. She cannot menace our vital security in any way.... War with Japan is not a possibility which any reasonable government need take into account.
Winston Churchill
Solitary trees, if they grow at all, grow strong.
Winston Churchill
We were not made by Nature to work, or even to play, from eight o'clock in the morning till midnight. We ought to break our days and our marches into two.
Winston Churchill
If you don't have any enemies in life you have never stood up for anything.
Winston Churchill
The salvation of the common people of every race and of every land from war or servitude must be established on solid foundations and must be guarded by the readiness of all men and women to die rather than submit to tyranny.
Winston Churchill
No one can guarantee success in war, but only deserve it.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Perfectionism spells paralysis.
Winston Churchill
It is a great mistake to suppose that thrift is caused only by fear it springs from hope as well as from fear where there is no hope, be sure there will be no thrift.
Winston Churchill
How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is a fateful fatalistic apathy.
Winston Churchill
I do not see any other way of realizing our hopes about World Organization in five or six days. Even the Almighty took seven.
Winston Churchill
I feel devoutly thankful to have been born fond of writing.
Winston Churchill
No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.
Winston Churchill
Time and the Ocean and some guiding star and High Cabal have made us what we are.
Winston Churchill
This beginning with Audacity, or being thrown into the middle of it, is already a very great part of the art of painting.
Winston Churchill
Time is one thing that can never be retrieved. One may lose and regain friends. One may lose and regain money. Opportunity, once spurned, may come again. But the hours that are lost in idleness can never be brought back to be used in gainful pursuits
Winston Churchill
We are shaping the world faster than we can change ourselves, and we are applying to the present the habits of the past.
Winston Churchill
There is no doubt the charge was an awful gamble and that no normal precautions were possible. The issue as far as I was concerned had to be left to Fortune or to God - or to whatever may decide these things. I am content and shall not complain.
Winston Churchill
