More quotes by Winston Churchill
I love to learn but I do not want to be taught
Winston Churchill
Don't give your sons money. Give them horses. Many a good son has been ruined through the acquisition of money but no good son has been ruined through the acquisition of horses. Unless they fell and broke their neck, which when taken at the gallop is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
Expert knowledge is limited knowledge
Winston Churchill
My hope is that the generous instincts of unity will not depart from us...[so that we] become the prey of the little folk who exist in every country and who frolic alongside the Juggernaut car of war to see what fun or notoriety they can extract from the proceedings.
Winston Churchill
An optimist sees the oportunity in every difficulty.
Winston Churchill
The Turkish Government began and ruthlessly carried out the infamous massacre and deportation of Armenians in Asia Minor. The clearance of the race from Asia Minor was about as complete as such an act, on a scale so great, could well be.
Winston Churchill
Play the game for more than you can afford to lose... only then will you learn the game.
Winston Churchill
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. Some of us think holding on makes us strong but sometimes it is letting go. Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.
Winston Churchill
I am quite sure, that if we open a quarrel between the past and the present, we shall find that we have lost the future.
Winston Churchill
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
The Almighty in His infinite wisdom did not see fit to create Frenchmen in the image of Englishmen.
Winston Churchill
Advertising mourishes the consuming power of men. It sets up before a man the goal of a better home, better clothing, better food for himself and his family. It spurs individual exertion and greater production.
Winston Churchill
This is the type of arrant pedantry up with which I will not put.
Winston Churchill
The poor girl does not know how to have a conversation. Unfortunately, she does know how to speak.
Winston Churchill
A communist is like a crocodile: when it opens its mouth you cannot tell whether it is trying to smile or preparing to eat you up.
Winston Churchill
Plans are of little importance, but planning is essential.
Winston Churchill
A gentleman is a man who is only rude when he intends to be.
Winston Churchill
To improve is to change.
Winston Churchill
This beginning with Audacity, or being thrown into the middle of it, is already a very great part of the art of painting.
Winston Churchill
Here was a place where real things were going on. Here was a scene of vital action. Here was a place where anything might happen. Here was a place where something would certainly happen. Here I might leave my bones.
Winston Churchill
