Winston Churchill
Image
If you want me to speak for two minutes, it will take me three weeks of preparation. If you want me to speak for thirty minutes, it will take me a week to prepare. If you want me to speak for an hour, I am ready now.

The essence and foundation of House of Commons debating is formal conversation. The set speech, the harangue addressed to constituents, or to the wider public out of doors, has never succeeded much in our small wisely-built chamber. To do any good you have got to get down to grips with the subject and in human touch with the audience.
Winston Churchill
Image
We are happier in many ways when we are old than when we were young. The young sow wild oats. The old grow sage.
Winston Churchill

The most formidable people in the world, and now the most dangerous, people who... lay down the doctrine that every frontier must be the starting out point for invasion.
Winston Churchill
Image
Life is a test and this world a place of trial.
Winston Churchill
Image

Winston Churchill
Image
To achieve the extirpation of Nazi tyranny there are no lengths of violence to which we will not go.
Winston Churchill
Image
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
Image
Courage is the greatest virtue because it guarantees all the rest.
Winston Churchill

One does not leave a convivial party before closing time.
Winston Churchill
Image
Courage is rightly considered the foremost of the virtues, for upon it all others depend.
Winston Churchill
Image
Thus, be every device from the stick to the carrot, the emaciated Austrian donkey is made to pull the Nazi barrow up an ever-steepening hill.
Winston Churchill
Image
Wealth, taste and leisure can bring many things but they do not bring happiness.
Winston Churchill
Image
The loyalties which center upon number one are enormous. If he trips, he must be sustained. If he make mistakes, they must be covered. If he sleeps, he must not be wantonly disturbed. If he is no good, he must be pole-axed.
