Democracy is the best form of the worst type of government
Winston Churchill
I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.
Winston Churchill
There is no need to exaggerate the part played in the creation of the Bolshevism and in the actual bringing about of the Russian Revolution, by these international and for the most part atheistical Jews.
Winston Churchill
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
Winston Churchill
It is not alone that property, in all its forms, is struck at, but that liberty, in all its forms, is challenged by the fundamental conceptions of socialism.
Winston Churchill
I am your servant. You have the right to dismiss me when you please. What you have no right to do is ask me to bear responsibility without the power of action.
Winston Churchill
Everyone threw the blame on me ... they nearly always do. I suppose ... they think I shall be able to bear it best.
Winston Churchill
We need to be strong in order to avoid war and to win. A politician looks forward only to the next election. A statesman looks forward to the next generation. Any person who is over 30 and is not a conservative, has no brains.
Winston Churchill
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.
Winston Churchill
I was shown a picture by Cézanne of a blank wall of a house, which he had made instinct with the most delicate lights and colours.
Winston Churchill
Churchill says the Government had to choose between war and shame. They chose shame. They will get war, too.
Winston Churchill
The oldest habit in the world for resisting change is to complain that unless the remedy to the disease should be universally applied it should not be applied at all. But you must start somewhere.
Winston Churchill
I don't like standing near the edge of a platform when an express train is passing through. I like to stand right back and if possible get a pillar between me and the train. I don't like to stand by the side of a ship and look down into the water. A second's action would end everything. A few drops of desperation.
Winston Churchill
It is better to be making the news than taking it, to be an actor rather than a critic.
Winston Churchill
If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons.
Winston Churchill
We were not made by Nature to work, or even to play, from eight o'clock in the morning till midnight. We ought to break our days and our marches into two.
Winston Churchill
When the eagles are silent, the parrots begin to jabber.
Winston Churchill
The greatest advances in human civilization have come when we recovered what we had lost: when we learned the lessons of history.
Winston Churchill
A lady came up to me one day and said 'Sir! You are drunk', to which I replied 'I am drunk today madam, and tomorrow I shall be sober but you will still be ugly.
Winston Churchill
We should lay aside every hindrance and endeavour by uniting the whole force and spirit of our people to raise again a great British nation standing up before all the world for such a nation, rising in its ancient vigour, can even at this hour save civilization.
Winston Churchill
