More quotes by Winston Churchill
There is no finer investment for any community than putting milk into babies.
Winston Churchill
... I think it would be so much better for me to learn something which would be useful to me in the army, as well as affording me exercise and amusement.
Winston Churchill
Let our advance worrying become advance thinking and planning.
Winston Churchill
Immense deposits of kimmeridge clay, containing the oil-bearing bands or seams, stretch across England from Dorsetshire to Lincolnshire. [An early political recognition of the native resource. The Geological Survey had identified the inflammable oil shale in reports since at least 1888.]
Winston Churchill
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
Any man who is under 30, and is not a liberal, has no heart and any man who is over 30, and is not a conservative, has no brains.
Winston Churchill
Nothing is won without enthusiasm.
Winston Churchill
I hate nobody except Hitler--and that is professional.
Winston Churchill
No one should waste a day.
Winston Churchill
Courage is rightly considered the foremost of the virtues, for upon it all others depend.
Winston Churchill
Sure I am of this, that you have only to endure to conquer.
Winston Churchill
I wonder whether any other generation has seen such astounding revolutions of data and values as those through which we have lived. Scarcely anything material or established which I was brought up to believe was permanent and vital, has lasted. Everything I was sure or taught to be sure was impossible, has happened.
Winston Churchill
I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion.
Winston Churchill
Still, it is the primary right of men to die and kill for the land they live in, and to punish with exceptional severity all members of their own race who have warmed their hands at the invaders' hearth.
Winston Churchill
There is no doubt that it is around the family and the home that all the greatest virtues, the most dominating virtues of human, are created, strengthened and maintained.
Winston Churchill
It is not given to human beings, happily for them, for otherwise life would be intolerable, to foresee or to predict to any large extent the unfolding course of events.
Winston Churchill
I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.
Winston Churchill
I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact, if anything, I am the prod.
Winston Churchill
Watch your character for your character is your destiny.
Winston Churchill
Doubts could be swept away only by deeds.
Winston Churchill
