Winston Churchill
Unpunctuality is a vile habit.
Winston Churchill
There are two kinds of success-initial and ultimate.
Winston Churchill
Civilisation will not last, freedom will not survive, peace will not be kept, unless a very large majority of mankind unite together to defend them and show themselves possessed of a constabulary power before which barbaric and atavistic forces will stand in awe.
Winston Churchill
