Winston Churchill
The facilities for advanced education must be evened out and multiplied. No one who can take advantage of a higher education should be denied this chance. You cannot conduct a modern community except with an adequate supply of persons upon whose education, whether humane, technical, or scientific, much time and money have been spent.
Winston Churchill
I have always had a curious nature I enjoy learning, but I dislike being taught.
Winston Churchill
The flame of Christian ethics is still our highest guide.
Winston Churchill
I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this government: I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Democracy means that when there's a knock in the door at 3 am, it's probably the milkman.
