If you cannot read all your books, at any rate handle them, and, as it were, fondle them. Let them fall open where they will. Make a voyage of discovery, taking soundings of uncharted seas.

More quotes by Winston Churchill
I gather, young man, that you wish to be a Member of Parliament.

That is a political statistic.

He who fails to plan is planning to fail.
Winston Churchill
Never give in, never give in, never give in.

Winston Churchill
There is a treasure in the heart of every man if you can only find it
Winston Churchill
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
If you find something you really love, you will never work again.
Winston Churchill
