Winston Churchill
One might as well legalise sodomy as recognise the Bolsheviks.
Winston Churchill
Unless some effective supranational government can be set up and brought quickly into action, the prospects of peace and human progress are dark and doubtful.
Winston Churchill
The substance of the eminent Socialist gentlemen's speech is that making a profit is a sin. It is my belief that the real sin is taking a loss!
Winston Churchill
It seems to me that the moment has come when the question of bombing of German cities simply for the sake of increasing the terror, though under other pretexts, should be reviewed.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Armed with a paint-box, one cannot be bored, one cannot be left at a loose end, one cannot 'have several days on one's hands.
Winston Churchill
The Navy can lose us the war, but only the Air Force can win it. Therefore our supreme effort must be to gain overwhelming mastery in the Air. The Fighters are our salvation . . . but the Bombers alone provide the means of victory. . . . In no other way at present visible can we hope to overcome the immense military power of Germany.
Winston Churchill
Here is the answer which I will give to President Roosevelt. Give us the tools, and we will finish the job.
Winston Churchill
In war, truth is often the first casualty.
Winston Churchill
Dear citizen, if you were my love, I'd stole your money!' Admin if you were my love, I would ask you for divorce and spousal support!
Winston Churchill
Before Alamein we never had a victory. After Alamein we never had a defeat.
Winston Churchill
We make our buildings, and then our buildings make and shape us.
Winston Churchill
