More quotes by Winston Churchill
Peace will not be preserved by pious sentiments.
Winston Churchill
There must be what Mr. Gladstone many years ago called a blessed act of oblivion. We must all turn our backs upon the horrors of the past. We must look to the future.

Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
The press is easier to strangle than to look in the eyes.
Winston Churchill
It is hard, if not impossible, to snub a beautiful woman - they remain beautiful and the snub recoils.
Winston Churchill
We have taken a grave and hazardous decision to sustain the Greeks and try to make a Balkan Front.
Winston Churchill
An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
Winston Churchill
Working hours are never long enough. Each day is a holiday, and ordinary holidays are grudged as enforced interruptions in an absorbing vocation.
Winston Churchill
Certainly the prolonged education indispensable to the progress of society is not natural to mankind.
Winston Churchill
You don't make the poor richer by making the rich poorer.
Winston Churchill
