Winston Churchill
I have had to eat my own words many times, and I have found it a very nourishing diet.
Winston Churchill
Socialism is an attack on the right to breathe freely. No socialist system can be established without a political police.
Winston Churchill
[There are dangers in] the disposition to hunt down rich men as if they were noxious beasts.
Winston Churchill
The oldest habit in the world for resisting change is to complain that unless the remedy to the disease should be universally applied it should not be applied at all. But you must start somewhere.
Winston Churchill
