More quotes by Winston Churchill
It is of no account after all, the old bird does not fly far from his nest.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
To be conservative at 20 is heartless and to be a liberal at 60 is plain idiocy.
Winston Churchill
Hess or no Hess, I'm going to watch the Marx Brothers.
Winston Churchill
Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision.
Winston Churchill
Here was a place where real things were going on. Here was a scene of vital action. Here was a place where anything might happen. Here was a place where something would certainly happen. Here I might leave my bones.
Winston Churchill
Renown awaits the commander who first restores artillery to its prime importance on the battlefield.
Winston Churchill
I was happy as a child with my toys in my nursery. I been happier every year since I became a man. But this interlude of school makes a somber grey patch upon the chart of my journey. It was a unending spell of worries that did not then seem petty, and of toil uncheered by fruition a time of discomfort, restriction and purposeless monotony.
Winston Churchill
I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.
Winston Churchill
