Quote

Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valor, and be in readiness for the conflict for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar.

Do not trust any statistics you did not fake yourself.
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

I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact, if anything, I am the prod.
Winston Churchill

The United States is like a gigantic boiler. Once the fire is lit under it, there's no limit to the power it can generate.

Never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

Don't be careless about yourselves--on the other hand not too careful. Live well but do not flaunt it. Laugh a little and teach your men to laugh--get good humor under fire--war is a game that's played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
Winston Churchill

There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction.

The facilities for advanced education must be evened out and multiplied. No one who can take advantage of a higher education should be denied this chance. You cannot conduct a modern community except with an adequate supply of persons upon whose education, whether humane, technical, or scientific, much time and money have been spent.
Winston Churchill

If you cannot read all your books, at any rate handle them, and, as it were, fondle them. Let them fall open where they will. Make a voyage of discovery, taking soundings of uncharted seas.

I was shown a picture by Cézanne of a blank wall of a house, which he had made instinct with the most delicate lights and colours.
