Mr. Gladstone read Homer for fun, which I thought served him right.
Winston Churchill
Image
It is not always possible to have everything go as one likes. In working with allies, it sometimes happens that they develop opinions of their own
Winston Churchill
Image
You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.
Winston Churchill
Image
The difference between mere management and leadership is communication.
Winston Churchill
Image
Time is one thing that can never be retrieved. One may lose and regain friends. One may lose and regain money. Opportunity, once spurned, may come again. But the hours that are lost in idleness can never be brought back to be used in gainful pursuits
Winston Churchill

A hopeful disposition is not the sole qualification to be a prophet.
