More quotes by Winston Churchill
There is no worse mistake in public leadership than to hold out false hopes soon to be swept away. The British people can face peril or misfortune with fortitude and buoyancy, but they bitterly resent being deceived or finding that those responsible for their affairs are themselves dwelling in a fool's paradise.
Winston Churchill
Show me a young Conservative and I'll show you someone with no heart. Show me an old Liberal and I'll show you someone with no brains.
Winston Churchill
Here was a place where real things were going on. Here was a scene of vital action. Here was a place where anything might happen. Here was a place where something would certainly happen. Here I might leave my bones.
Winston Churchill
There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word, which means more to me than any other. That word is England.
Winston Churchill
All wisdom is not new wisdom.
Winston Churchill
Never pass up the chance to sit down or go to the bathroom.
Winston Churchill
I'm too busy. I have no time for worry.
Winston Churchill
The Dark Ages may return-the Stone Age may return on the gleaming wings of Science and what might now shower immeasureable material blessings upon mankind may even bring about its total destruction. Beware! I say. Time may be short. Referring to the discovery of atomic energy.
Winston Churchill
If you put two economists xin a room, you get two opinions, unless one of them is Lord Keynes, in which case you get three opinions.
Winston Churchill
God alone knows how great it is. All I hope is that it is not too late. I am very much afraid that it is. We can only do our best.
Winston Churchill
We do not covet anything from any nation except their respect.
Winston Churchill
War, which used to be cruel and magnificent has now become cruel and squalid.
Winston Churchill
I think it is the most important subject facing this country, but I cannot get any of my ministers to take any notice.
Winston Churchill
Never give in, never! Be it concerning large things or small things, never, never, never!
Winston Churchill
We are waiting for the long-promised invasion. So are the fishes.
Winston Churchill
The game of life does not proceed like a mathematical calculation on the principle that two and two make four. Sometimes they make five, or minus four, and sometimes the blackboard topples over in the middle of the sum and the pedagogue is left with a black eye.
Winston Churchill
My rule of life prescribed as an absolutely sacred rite smoking cigars and also the drinking of alcohol before, after and if need be during all meals and in the intervals between them.
Winston Churchill
You must be prepared for further efforts of mind and body and further sacrifices to great causes, if you are not to fall back into the rut if inertia, the confusion of aim and the craven fear of being great.
Winston Churchill
The only thing that ever really frightened me during the war was the U-Boat peril...It did not take the form of flaring battles and glittering achievements, it manifested itself through statistics, diagrams, and curves unknown to the nation, incomprehensible to the public.
Winston Churchill
The only statistics you can trust are those you falsified yourself.
Winston Churchill
