More quotes by 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
That long (Canadian) frontier from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, guarded only by neighbourly respect and honourable obligations, as an example to every country and a pattern for the future of the world.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
All I want is compliance with my wishes, after reasonable discussion.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Strategy is all very well, but it pays to give thought from time to time to the results.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion.
Winston Churchill
If Europe were once united in the sharing of its common inheritance there would be no limit to the happiness, the prosperity, and the glory which its three or four million people would enjoy.
Winston Churchill
Personal initiative, competitive selection, the profit motive, corrected by failure and the infinite process of good housekeeping and the personal ingenuity-here constitute the life of a free society.
Winston Churchill
I have always had a curious nature I enjoy learning, but I dislike being taught.
Winston Churchill
The only guide to man is his conscience.
Winston Churchill
Mr. Chamberlain loves the working man, he loves to see him work.
Winston Churchill
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
Winston Churchill
Do not criticize your government when out of the country. Never cease to do so when at home
Winston Churchill
I was only the servant of my country and had I, at any moment, failed to express her unflinching resolve to fight and conquer, I should at once have been rightly cast aside.
Winston Churchill
The painter wanders and loiters contentedly from place to place, always on the lookout for some brilliant butterfly of a picture which can be caught and carried safely home.
