Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.

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.

I always like to learn, but I don't always like to be taught.
Winston Churchill
Image
Everybody has always underrated the Russians. They keep their own secrets alike from foe and friends.
Winston Churchill

We must not lose our faculty to dare, particularly in dark days.
Winston Churchill

In battles two things are usually required of the Commander-in-Chief: to make a good plan for his army and, secondly, to keep a strong reserve.
Winston Churchill
Image
This is a war of the unknown warriors but let all strive without failing in faith or in duty, and the dark curse of Hitler will be lifted from our age.

The influence exercised over the human mind by apt analogies is and has always been immense. Whether they translate an established truth into simple language or whether they adventurously aspire to reveal the unknown, they are among the most formidable weapons of the rhetorician.
