Winston Churchill
I gather, young man, that you wish to be a Member of Parliament. The first lesson that you must learn is, when I call for statistics about the rate of infant mortality, what I want is proof that fewer babies died when I was Prime Minister than when anyone else was Prime Minister. That is a political statistic.
Winston Churchill
It is of no account after all, the old bird does not fly far from his nest.
Winston Churchill
...the high roads of the future will be clear, not only for us but for all, not only for our time but for a century to come.
Winston Churchill
