More quotes by Winston Churchill
Watch your character for your character is your destiny.
Winston Churchill
I wonder whether any other generation has seen such astounding revolutions of data and values as those through which we have lived. Scarcely anything material or established which I was brought up to believe was permanent and vital, has lasted. Everything I was sure or taught to be sure was impossible, has happened.
Winston Churchill
I'm finished ... I'm done. What I want above all things is to take some active part in beating the Germans ... I'd go out to the Front at once.
Winston Churchill
There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction.
Winston Churchill
I drink a great deal. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form.
Winston Churchill
How many have gone? How many more to go? The Admiralty is fast asleep and lethargy & inertia are the order of the day. However everybody seems delighted - so there is nothing to be said. No plans, no enterprise, no struggle to aid the general cause. Just sit still on the spacious throne and snooze.
Winston Churchill
I know of no case where a man added to his dignity by standing on it.
Winston Churchill
I do think unpunctuality is a vile habit, and all my life I have tried to break myself of it.
Winston Churchill
To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day.
Winston Churchill
Really I feel less keen about the Army every day. I think the Church would suit me better.
Winston Churchill
Thus I got into my bones the essential structure of the ordinary British sentence, which is a noble thing.
Winston Churchill
Kites rise highest against the wind - not with it.
Winston Churchill
What a fool I have been!
Winston Churchill
The only thing that ever really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril.
Winston Churchill
The head cannot take in more than the seat can endure.
Winston Churchill
We have a lot of anxieties, and one cancels out another very often.
Winston Churchill
What kind of people do they think we are? Is it possible they do not realize that we shall never cease to persevere against them until they have been taught a lesson which they and the world will never forget?
Winston Churchill
When you are winning a war almost everything that happens can be claimed to be right and wise.
Winston Churchill
If a woman has It, she doesn't need anything else but if she doesn't have It, it doesn't matter what else she has.
Winston Churchill
There is no surer method of economizing and saving money than in the reduction of the number of officials.
Winston Churchill
