More quotes by Winston Churchill
The Golcondas were considered incomparably the best team in Southern India ... [But] we defeated [them] by 9 goals to 3. On succeeding days we made short work of all other opponents, and established the record, never since broken, of winning a first-class tournament within fifty days of landing in India.
Winston Churchill
I cannot forecast to you the action of Russia. It is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma: but perhaps there is a key. That key is Russian national interest.
Winston Churchill
It is easier to give directions than advice, and more agreeable to have the right to act, even in a limited sphere, than the privilege to talk at large.
Winston Churchill
It was at Little Lodge I was first menaced with Education. The approach of a sinister figure described as 'the Governess' was announced.
Winston Churchill
Nothing is more dangerous in wartime than to live in the temperamental atmosphere of a Gallup Poll, always feeling one's pulse and taking one's temperature.
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
I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Courage is the greatest virtue because it guarantees all the rest.
Winston Churchill
I propose that 100,000 degenerate Britons should be forcibly sterilized and others put in labour camps to halt the decline of the British race.
Winston Churchill
If the British Empire is fated to pass from life into history, we must hope it will not be by the slow process of dispersion and decay, but in some supreme exertion for freedom, for right and for truth.
Winston Churchill
If this is a blessing, it is certainly very well disguised.
Winston Churchill
I was not the lion, but it fell to me to give the lion's roar.
Winston Churchill
I do not believe there is the slightest chance of war with Japan in our lifetime. The Japanese are our allies.... Japan is at the other end of the world. She cannot menace our vital security in any way.... War with Japan is not a possibility which any reasonable government need take into account.
Winston Churchill
Success always demands a greater effort.
Winston Churchill
One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
Winston Churchill
The substitution of the internal combustion engine for the horse marked a very gloomy milestone in the progress of mankind.
Winston Churchill
No two on earth in all things can agree. All have some daring singularity.
Winston Churchill
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be for without victory, there is no survival.
