More quotes by Winston Churchill
Never give up. Never give up. Never give up.
Winston Churchill
It is alarming ... to see Mr Gandhi, a seditious Middle Temple lawyer, now posing as a fakir of a type well-known in the East, striding half-naked up the steps of the Vice-regal Palace while he is still organising and conducting a campaign of civil disobedience.
Winston Churchill
During their lifetimes, every man and woman will stumble across a great opportunity. Sadly, most of them will simply pick themselves up, dust themselves down and carry on as if nothing ever happened.
Winston Churchill
My hope is that the generous instincts of unity will not depart from us...[so that we] become the prey of the little folk who exist in every country and who frolic alongside the Juggernaut car of war to see what fun or notoriety they can extract from the proceedings.
Winston Churchill
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. Some of us think holding on makes us strong but sometimes it is letting go. Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.
Winston Churchill
Writing ... it begins as an amusement, then it becomes a mistress, then a master, and finally a tyrant.
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
Never pass up the chance to sit down or go to the bathroom.
Winston Churchill
I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.
Winston Churchill
We do not covet anything from any nation except their respect.
Winston Churchill
If you travel the earth, you will find it is largely divided into two classes of people-people who say 'I wonder why such and such is not done and people who say Now who is going to prevent me from doing that thing?
Winston Churchill
Nature will not be admired by proxy.
Winston Churchill
A world united is better than a world divided, but a world divided is better than a world destroyed.
Winston Churchill
An extra yawn one morning in the springtime, an extra snooze one night in the autumn is all that we ask in return for dazzling gifts. We borrow an hour one night in April we pay it back with golden interest five months later.
Winston Churchill
Have no fear of the future. Let us go forward into its mysteries, tear away the veils which hide it from our eyes, and move onwards with confidence and courage.
Winston Churchill
Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.
Winston Churchill
I like things to happen, and if they don't happen I like to make them happen.
Winston Churchill
The only thing wrong with Christianity is the lack of suffering.
Winston Churchill
The greatest advances in human civilization have come when we recovered what we had lost: when we learned the lessons of history.
Winston Churchill
In Success you deserve it and in defeat, you need it.
Winston Churchill
