What kind of people do they [the Japanese] think we are?
Winston Churchill
The jury system has come to stand for all we mean by English justice. The scrutiny of 12 honest jurors provides defendants and plaintiffs alike a safeguard from arbitrary perversion of the law.
Winston Churchill
Strategy is all very well, but it pays to give thought from time to time to the results.
Winston Churchill
Let us reconcile ourselves to the mysterious rhythm of our destinies, such as they must be in this world of space and time.
Winston Churchill
Hess or no Hess, I'm going to watch the Marx Brothers.
Winston Churchill
A pessimist sees problems in opportunities whereas an optimist sees opportunities in problems.
