More quotes by Winston Churchill
May it not also be that the cause of civilization itself will be defended by the skill and devotion of a few thousand airmen? There never has been, I suppose, in all the world, in all the history of war, such an opportunity for youth. The Knights of the Round Table, the Crusaders, all fall back into the past.
Winston Churchill
I know of no case where a man added to his dignity by standing on it.
Winston Churchill
In the past we have had a light which flickered, in the present we have a light which flames, and in the future there will be a light which shines over all the land and sea.
Winston Churchill
I could not help reflecting that the bullet which had struck the chestnut [horse] had certainly passed within a foot of my head. So at any rate I had been 'under fire.' That was something.
Winston Churchill
You must look at facts, because they look at you.
Winston Churchill
I let the argument rip healthily between the departments. This is a very good way to finding out the truth.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.
Winston Churchill
Every man should ask himself each day whether he is not too readily accepting negative solutions.
Winston Churchill
If we look to our responsibility to the generations yet unborn who will come after us, how can we fail to recognize that peace and freedom are inextricably bound up one with another and that the threat to one is a threat to both
Winston Churchill
It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.
Winston Churchill
There is, therefore, wisdom in reserving one's decisions as long as possible and until all the facts and forces that will be potent at the moment are revealed.
Winston Churchill
It is my belief, you cannot deal with the most serious things in the world unless you understand the most amusing.
Winston Churchill
The only thing wrong with Christianity is the lack of suffering.
Winston Churchill
The problems of victory are more agreeable than those of defeat, but they are no less difficult.
Winston Churchill
You do your worst, and we'll do our best.
Winston Churchill
