If you recognize anyone it does not mean you like them.
Winston Churchill
I do think unpunctuality is a vile habit, and all my life I have tried to break myself of it.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Wars are not won by evacuations.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
What is the use of living, if it be not to strive for noble causes and to make this muddled world a better place for those who will live in it after we are gone?
Winston Churchill
The United States is a land of free speech. Nowhere is speech freer - not even here where we sedulously cultivate it even in its most repulsive form.
Winston Churchill
I love to learn but I do not want to be taught
Winston Churchill
Never stand so high upon a principle that you cannot lower it to suit the circumstances.
Winston Churchill
Our free trade plan is quite simple. We say that every [citizen] shall have the right to buy whatever he wants, wherever he wants, at his own good pleasure, without restriction or discouragement from the state.
Winston Churchill
Still, it is the primary right of men to die and kill for the land they live in, and to punish with exceptional severity all members of their own race who have warmed their hands at the invaders' hearth.
Winston Churchill
The cultivation of a hobby and new forms of interest is a policy of first importance to a public man.
Winston Churchill
It is wonderful what great strides can be made when there is a resolute purpose behind them.
Winston Churchill
