More quotes by Winston Churchill
I love to learn but I do not want to be taught
Winston Churchill
There is no doubt the charge was an awful gamble and that no normal precautions were possible. The issue as far as I was concerned had to be left to Fortune or to God - or to whatever may decide these things. I am content and shall not complain.
Winston Churchill
In the course of my life, I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess that I have always found it a wholesome diet.
Winston Churchill
Lenin was sent into Russia by the Germans in the same way that you might send a phial containing a culture of typhoid or cholera to be poured into the water supply of a great city, and it worked with amazing accuracy.
Winston Churchill
Here Churchill repeats with approval a statement he had first made in January, 1930 at a meeting at the Cannon Street Hotel. Sooner or later you will have to crush Gandhi and the Indian Congress and all they stand for.
Winston Churchill
It is not alone that property, in all its forms, is struck at, but that liberty, in all its forms, is challenged by the fundamental conceptions of socialism.
Winston Churchill
I have had a number of threatening letters each week, some telling me the actual time and method of my death, and I don't like it.
Winston Churchill
Personal initiative, competitive selection, the profit motive, corrected by failure and the infinite process of good housekeeping and the personal ingenuity-here constitute the life of a free society.
Winston Churchill
If you wanted nothing done at all, Balfour was the man for the job.
Winston Churchill
The era of procrastination, of half-measures, of soothing and baffling expedients, of delays is coming to its close. In its place we are entering a period of consequences.
Winston Churchill
History unfolds itself by strange and unpredictable paths. We have little control over the future and none at all over the past.
Winston Churchill
The cost of solving the Comet mystery must be reckoned neither in money nor in manpower.
Winston Churchill
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be for without victory, there is no survival.
Winston Churchill
Anyone who is not a liberal in his youth has no heart. Anyone who remains so as he matures has no brain!
Winston Churchill
If I stay on for the time being, bearing the burden at my age, it is not because of love for power or office. I have had an ample share of both. If I stay it is because I have a feeling that I may, through things that have happened, have an influence about what I care about above all else, the building of a sure and lasting peace.
Winston Churchill
Of all the talents bestowed upon men, none is so precious as the gift of oratory. He who enjoys it wields a power more durable than that of a great king. He is an independent force in the world.
Winston Churchill
The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.
Winston Churchill
When you're 20 you care what everyone thinks, when you're 40 you stop caring what everyone thinks, when you're 60 you realize no one was ever thinking about you in the first place. You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
Winston Churchill
Before America entered the war [WW2] I knew we could not win it, but after she entered I knew we could not lose
Winston Churchill
Keep calm and carry on.
Winston Churchill
