More quotes by Winston Churchill
Don't take 'no' for an answer, never submit to failure. Do not be fobbed off with mere personal success or acceptance. You will make all kinds of mistakes, but as long as you are generous and true, and also fierce, you cannot hurt the world or events.
Winston Churchill
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
Winston Churchill
Always remember, however sure you are that you could easily win, that there would not be a war if the other man did not think he also had a chance.
Winston Churchill
A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him.
Winston Churchill
Writing a long and substantial book is like having a friend and companion at your side, to whom you can always turn for comfort and amusement, and whose society becomes more attractive as a new and widening field of interest is lighted in the mind.
Winston Churchill
This movement among the Jews is not new... This world-wide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily growing... It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the Nineteenth Century.
Winston Churchill
In Great Britain, governments often change their policies without changing their men. In France, they usually change their men without changing their policy.
Winston Churchill
Danger gathers upon our path. We cannot afford - we have no right - to look back. We must look forward... The stronger the advocate of monarchical principle a man may be, the more zealously he must now endeavor to fortify the Throne and to give to His Majesty's successor that strength which can only come from the love of a united nation and Empire.
Winston Churchill
Baldwin thought Europe was a bore, and Chamberlain thought it was only a greater Birmingham.
Winston Churchill
Air superiority is the ultimate expression of military power.
Winston Churchill
Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common... Celebrate it every day.
Winston Churchill
I am not a bit afraid of Siegfried Sassoon. That man can think. I am afraid only of people who cannot think.
Winston Churchill
Do not criticize your government when out of the country. Never cease to do so when at home
Winston Churchill
The facilities for advanced education must be evened out and multiplied. No one who can take advantage of a higher education should be denied this chance. You cannot conduct a modern community except with an adequate supply of persons upon whose education, whether humane, technical, or scientific, much time and money have been spent.
Winston Churchill
Death and sorrow will be the companions of our journey hardship our garment constancy and valor our only shield. We must be united, we must be undaunted, we must be inflexible.
Winston Churchill
Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.
Winston Churchill
I do think unpunctuality is a vile habit, and all my life I have tried to break myself of it.
Winston Churchill
All wisdom is not new wisdom.
Winston Churchill
This is no time for ease and comfort. It is time to dare and endure.
Winston Churchill
At the beginning of this War megalomania was the only form of sanity.
Winston Churchill
