More quotes by Winston Churchill
Lenin was sent into Russia by the Germans in the same way that you might send a phial containing a culture of typhoid or cholera to be poured into the water supply of a great city, and it worked with amazing accuracy.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Those whose work and pleasure are one... are... Fortune's favoured children.
Winston Churchill
What kind of people do they think we are? Is it possible they do not realize that we shall never cease to persevere against them until they have been taught a lesson which they and the world will never forget?

Winston Churchill
[Magna Carta provided] a system of checks and balances which would accord the monarchy its necessary strength, but would prevent its perversion by a tyrant or a fool.
Winston Churchill
I have worked very hard with Nehru. I told him he should be the light of Asia, to show all those millions how they can shine out, instead of accepting the darkness of Communism.
Winston Churchill
Don't deliver an essay with so many points. No one can absorb it. Just say one thing... Of course, you can say the point in many different ways over and over again with different illustrations.
Winston Churchill
The object of Parliament is to substitute argument for fisticuffs.
Winston Churchill
Death and sorrow will be the companions of our journey hardship our garment constancy and valor our only shield. We must be united, we must be undaunted, we must be inflexible.
Winston Churchill
Don't interrupt me while I'm interrupting.
Winston Churchill
The privilege of a university education is a great one the more widely it is extended the better for any country.
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
We make our buildings and afterwards they make us. They regulate the course of our lives.
Winston Churchill
