Winston Churchill
When you feel you cannot continue in your position for another minute, and all that is in human power has been done, that is the moment when the enemy is most exhausted, and when one step forward will give you the fruits of the struggle you have borne
Winston Churchill
We are all functioning at a small fraction of our capacity.

Winston Churchill
I look like a down-and-out drunk who has been picked out of the gutter in the Strand.
Winston Churchill
One cannot leap a chasm in two jumps.
Winston Churchill
We are asking the nations of Europe between whom rivers of blood have flowed, to forget the feuds of a thousand years and work for the larger harmonies on which the future depends.
Winston Churchill
The man who stands firm in order to protect a sand-castle can never be relied upon for he has given away his common sense.
Winston Churchill
Peace will not be preserved by pious sentiments.
Winston Churchill
You never can tell whether bad luck may not after all turn out to be good luck.
Winston Churchill
I was on the whole considerably discouraged by my school days... It is not pleasant to feel oneself so completely outclassed and left behind at the very beginning of the race.
Winston Churchill
Everyone threw the blame on me ... they nearly always do. I suppose ... they think I shall be able to bear it best.
