Whenever I feel the need to take some exercise I lie down until the feeling goes away.
Winston Churchill
Image
There is something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty.
Winston Churchill
Image
I felt as if I were walking with destiny, and that all my past life had been but a preparation for this hour and for this trial... I thought I knew a good deal about it all, I was sure I should not fail.
Winston Churchill
Image
He has the gift of compressing the largest amount of words into the smallest amount of thoughts.
Winston Churchill
