Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.
Winston Churchill
No matter. The dead bird does not leave the nest.
Winston Churchill
Science unfolded her treasures and her secrets to the desperate demands of men, and placed in their hands agencies and apparatus almost decisive in their character. Reflecting on the outcome of World War I, and an ominous future.
Winston Churchill
A polo handicap is a persons ticket to the world.
Winston Churchill
Watch your thoughts, they become your words.
Winston Churchill
After a time, civil servants tend to become no longer servants and no longer civil.
Winston Churchill
I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.
Winston Churchill
The only guide to a man's conscience, the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions.
