There are bitter weeds in England.
Winston Churchill
Happy are the painters, for they shall not be lonely. Light and colour, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.
Winston Churchill
Democracy means that when there's a knock in the door at 3 am, it's probably the milkman.

I do not admit... that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America, or the black people of Australia... by the fact that a stronger race, a higher grade race... has come in and taken its place.

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
There is no finer investment for any community than putting milk into babies.
Winston Churchill
No crime is so great as daring to excel.
Winston Churchill
Baldwin thought Europe was a bore, and Chamberlain thought it was only a greater Birmingham.
Winston Churchill
One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
Winston Churchill
