More quotes by Winston Churchill
The element of the unexpected and the unforeseeable is what gives some of its relish to life and saves us from falling into the mechanical thralldom of the logicians.
Winston Churchill
I was happy as a child with my toys in my nursery. I been happier every year since I became a man. But this interlude of school makes a somber grey patch upon the chart of my journey. It was a unending spell of worries that did not then seem petty, and of toil uncheered by fruition a time of discomfort, restriction and purposeless monotony.
Winston Churchill
Don't give your sons money. Give them horses. Many a good son has been ruined through the acquisition of money but no good son has been ruined through the acquisition of horses. Unless they fell and broke their neck, which when taken at the gallop is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
An American diplomat is sometimes like a bull who carries his own china shop around with him.
Winston Churchill
English literature is a glorious inheritance which is open to all - there are no barriers, no coupons, and no restrictions. In the English language and in its great writers there are great riches and treasures, of which, of course, the Bible and Shakespeare stand along on the highest platform.
Winston Churchill
It may be that ... when the advance of destructive weapons enables everyone to kill everybody else nobody will want to kill anyone at all. [Referring to the hydrogen bomb.]
Winston Churchill
Politics are very much like war. We may even have to use poison gas at times.
Winston Churchill
We build dwellings and thereafter they build us.
Winston Churchill
We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
Winston Churchill
The worst mistake that a statesman can make is to promise victory and to see it dashed, the hopes dashed.
Winston Churchill
I have benefited greatly from criticism, and at no time have I suffered a lack thereof.
Winston Churchill
Victory was to be bought so dear as to be almost indistinguishable from defeat.
Winston Churchill
No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle.
Winston Churchill
Fancy living in one of these streets, never seeing anything beautiful, never eating anything savoury, never saying anything clever!
Winston Churchill
There is no merit in putting off a war for a year if, when it comes, it is far worse or much harder to win.
Winston Churchill
At the depths of that dusty soul there is nothing but abject surrender.
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.
Winston Churchill
Don't deliver an essay with so many points. No one can absorb it. Just say one thing... Of course, you can say the point in many different ways over and over again with different illustrations.
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
At the beginning of this War megalomania was the only form of sanity.
Winston Churchill
