More quotes by Winston Churchill
I was only the servant of my country and had I, at any moment, failed to express her unflinching resolve to fight and conquer, I should at once have been rightly cast aside.
Winston Churchill
One time he was asked if he believed in an afterlife.

Winston Churchill
Nothing can be more abhorrent to democracy than to imprison a person or keep him in prison because he is unpopular. This is really the test of civilization.
Winston Churchill
I am a child of the House of Commons. I was brought up in my fathers house to believe in democracy. Trust the peoplethat was his message.
Winston Churchill
Churchill says the Government had to choose between war and shame. They chose shame. They will get war, too.
Winston Churchill
It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.
Winston Churchill
The Navy can lose us the war, but only the Air Force can win it. The fighters are our salvation, but the bombers alone provide the means of victory.
Winston Churchill
I cannot help reflecting that if my father had been American and my mother British instead of the other way around, I might have gotten here on my own.
Winston Churchill
I like a man who grins when he fights.
Winston Churchill
