Winston Churchill
In order to become a great man, one must first be a great rascal.
Winston Churchill
This is no war of chieftains or of princes, of dynasties or national ambition it is a war of peoples and of causes. There are vast numbers, not only in this Island but in every land, who will render faithful service in this war, but whose names will never be known, whose deeds will never be recorded. This is a War of the Unknown Warriors
Winston Churchill
Criticism is easy achievement is difficult.
Winston Churchill
Some people like the Jews, and some do not. But no thoughtful man can deny the fact that they are, beyond any question, the most formidable and the most remarkable race which has appeared in the world.
Winston Churchill
A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
Winston Churchill
The great defence against aerial menace is to attack the enemy's aircraft as near as possible to their point of departure.
Winston Churchill
I have in my life concentrated more on self-expression than self-denial.
Winston Churchill
A single glass of champagne imparts a feeling of exhilaration. The nerves are braced the imagination is stirred, the wits become more nimble.
Winston Churchill
Books, in all their variety, offer the human intellect the means whereby civilisation may be carried triumphantly forward.
