More quotes by Winston Churchill
No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle.
Winston Churchill
To secure your historical standing, be sure you are the first to write about it.
Winston Churchill
There are no people in the world who are so slow to develop hostile feelings against a foreign country as the Americans, and no people who, once estranged, are more difficult to win back.
Winston Churchill
I'd rather spend half an hour in the company of a top carpenter, than three hours in the company of an average brain surgeon
Winston Churchill
If a woman has It, she doesn't need anything else but if she doesn't have It, it doesn't matter what else she has.
Winston Churchill
There is no doubt the charge was an awful gamble and that no normal precautions were possible. The issue as far as I was concerned had to be left to Fortune or to God - or to whatever may decide these things. I am content and shall not complain.
Winston Churchill
We are weakened and we are tired, but we are not done yet.
Winston Churchill
Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter.
Winston Churchill
Don't be content to be the chip off the old block - be the old block itself.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
My rule of life prescribed as an absolutely sacred rite smoking cigars and also the drinking of alcohol before, after and if need be during all meals and in the intervals between them.
Winston Churchill
There is only one duty, only one safe course, and that is to try to be right.
Winston Churchill
The cultivation of a hobby and new forms of interest is a policy of first importance to a public man.
Winston Churchill
We need to be strong in order to avoid war and to win. A politician looks forward only to the next election. A statesman looks forward to the next generation. Any person who is over 30 and is not a conservative, has no brains.
Winston Churchill
The worst mistake that a statesman can make is to promise victory and to see it dashed, the hopes dashed.
Winston Churchill
Do what you like, but like what you do.
Winston Churchill
In time of war, soldiers, however sensible, care a great deal more on some occasions about slaking their thirst than about the danger of enteric fever. Better known as typhoid, the disease is often spread by drinking contaminated water.
Winston Churchill
Russian may seem narrow-minded, impudent, or even stupid people, but can only pray for those who are against them.
Winston Churchill
We were not made by Nature to work, or even to play, from eight o'clock in the morning till midnight. We ought to break our days and our marches into two.
Winston Churchill
The poor girl does not know how to have a conversation. Unfortunately, she does know how to speak.
Winston Churchill
