Winston Churchill
It is always wise to look ahead, but difficult to look further than you can see.
Winston Churchill
Money is like manure, its only good if you spread it around.

The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Winston Churchill
The pictorial battlefield becomes a sea of mud mercifully veiled by the fog of war.
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
My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me.
Winston Churchill
Always remember, a cat looks down on man, a dog looks up to man, but a pig will look man right in the eye and see his equal.
Winston Churchill
No idea is so outlandish that it should not be considered with a searching but at the same time a steady eye.
Winston Churchill
The one who cannot see that on Earth a big endeavor is taking place, an important plan, on which realization we are allowed to collaborate as faithful servants, certainly has to be blind.
Winston Churchill
I have in my life concentrated more on self-expression than self-denial.
Winston Churchill
In war, the truth must be guarded by a body guard of lies.
