Expert knowledge is limited knowledge
Winston Churchill
Mr. Gladstone read Homer for fun, which I thought served him right.
Winston Churchill
They had bombed London, whether on purpose or not, and the British people and London especially should know that we could hit back. It would be good for the morale of us all.
Winston Churchill
I have never developed indigestion from eating my words.
Winston Churchill
In handing over the Government of India to these so-called political classes, we are handing over to men of straw, of whom, in a few years, no trace will remain.
Winston Churchill
And wherever men are fighting against barbarism, tyranny, and massacre, for freedom, law, and honour, let them remember that the fame of their deeds, even though they themselves be exterminated, may perhaps be celebrated as long as the world rolls round.
Winston Churchill
Better to dare mighty things and fail than to live in a grey twilight where there is neither victory nor defeat.
Winston Churchill
I liked wine, both red and white, and especially Champagne and on very special occasions I could even drink a small glass of brandy.
Winston Churchill
The tank was originally invented to clear a way for the infantry in the teeth of machine-gun fire. Now it is the infantry who will have to clear a way for the tanks.

Winston Churchill
When I warned them [the French] that Britain would fight on alone whatever they did, their generals told their Prime Minister and his divided Cabinet, In three weeks England will have her neck wrung like a chicken. Some chicken! Some neck!
Winston Churchill
We see nothing but good and hope in a richer, freer, more contented European commonalty. But we have our own dreams and our own task. We are with Europe, but not of it. We are linked, but not comprised. We are interested and associated, but not absorbed.
Winston Churchill
I do not resent criticism, even when for the sake of emphasis it parts for the time with reality.
Winston Churchill
When you feel you cannot continue in your position for another minute, and all that is in human power has been done, that is the moment when the enemy is most exhausted, and when one step forward will give you the fruits of the struggle you have borne
Winston Churchill
Here is the answer which I will give to President Roosevelt. Give us the tools, and we will finish the job.
Winston Churchill
My hope is that the generous instincts of unity will not depart from us...[so that we] become the prey of the little folk who exist in every country and who frolic alongside the Juggernaut car of war to see what fun or notoriety they can extract from the proceedings.
Winston Churchill
Nothing can save England if she will not save herself. If we lose faith in ourselves, in our capacity to guide and govern, if we lose our will to live, then indeed our story is told.
Winston Churchill
Danger, if met head on, can be nearly halved
Winston Churchill
Those whose work and pleasure are one... are... Fortune's favoured children.
