That is a political statistic.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
In battles two things are usually required of the Commander-in-Chief: to make a good plan for his army and, secondly, to keep a strong reserve.
Winston Churchill
Play the game for more than you can afford to lose... only then will you learn the game.
Winston Churchill
Rules were made for fools to follow and wise men to be guided by.
Winston Churchill
We shall not flag nor fail. We shall go on to the end.
Winston Churchill
Who is not liberal when young, does not have a heart. Who is not conservative when old, does not have a brain.
Winston Churchill
All men make mistakes, but only wise men learn from their mistakes.
Winston Churchill
Everyone can recognize history when it happens. Everyone can recognize history after is has happened but only the wise man knows at the moment what is vital and permanent, what is lasting and memorable.
Winston Churchill
Hence we will not say that Greeks fight like heroes, but heroes fight like Greeks.
Winston Churchill
I neither want it [brandy] nor need it, but I should think it pretty hazardous to interfere with the ineradicable habit of a lifetime.
Winston Churchill
