More quotes by Winston Churchill
...every offensive lost its force as it proceeded. It was like throwing a bucket of water over the floor. It first rushed forward, then soaked forward, and finally stopped altogether until another bucket could be brought.
Winston Churchill
It is sheer laziness not compressing thought into a reasonable space.
Winston Churchill
Unpunctuality is a vile habit.
Winston Churchill
We are still masters of our fate. We are still captains of our souls.
Winston Churchill
During their lifetimes, every man and woman will stumble across a great opportunity. Sadly, most of them will simply pick themselves up, dust themselves down and carry on as if nothing ever happened.
Winston Churchill
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Winston Churchill
There is no doubt the charge was an awful gamble and that no normal precautions were possible. The issue as far as I was concerned had to be left to Fortune or to God - or to whatever may decide these things. I am content and shall not complain.
Winston Churchill
I have found in my experience of war, that plans are useless, but planning is invaluable.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
No one ever came to grief-except honorable grief-through riding horses. No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle. Young men have often been ruined through owning horses, or through backing horses, but never through riding them unless of course they break their necks, which, taken at a gallop, is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
Of all the small nations of this earth, perhaps only the ancient Greeks surpass the Scots in their contribution to mankind.
Winston Churchill
No matter. The dead bird does not leave the nest.
Winston Churchill
The gin and tonic has saved more Englishmen's lives, and minds, than all the doctors in the Empire.
Winston Churchill
God alone knows how great it is. All I hope is that it is not too late. I am very much afraid that it is. We can only do our best.
Winston Churchill
All I want is compliance with my wishes, after reasonable discussion.
Winston Churchill
Out of intense complexities, intense simplicities emerge
Winston Churchill
War is mainly a catalogue of blunders.
Winston Churchill
