More quotes by Winston Churchill
The day may dawn when fair play, love for one's fellow men, respect for justice and freedom, will enable tormented generations to march forth serene and triumphant from the hideous epoch in which we have to dwell. Meanwhile, never flinch, never weary, never despair.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
If you cannot read all your books...fondle them---peer into them, let them fall open where they will, read from the first sentence that arrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your own hands, arrange them on your own plan so that you at least know where they are. Let them be your friends let them, at any rate, be your acquaintances.

Winston Churchill
Never give in, never give in, never give in.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
For with primacy in power is also joined an awe inspiring accountability to the future.
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 is always more easy to discover and proclaim general principles than it is to apply them.
Winston Churchill
Democracy is the best form of the worst type of government
Winston Churchill
When I am abroad, I always make it a rule never to criticize or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home.
Winston Churchill
We are not meant to find peace in this world. The spirit of life cannot exist without effort. Destroy the rivalries of man and nations and you will have destroyed all that makes for betterment and progress on Earth.
Winston Churchill
