More quotes by Winston Churchill
The British people are good all through. You can test them as you would put a bucket into the sea and always find it salt.
Winston Churchill
Already by 1900 I could boast I had written as many books as Moses.
Winston Churchill
I liked wine, both red and white, and especially Champagne and on very special occasions I could even drink a small glass of brandy.
Winston Churchill
Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second... if there is one.
Winston Churchill
It is not enough that we do our best sometimes we must do what is required.
Winston Churchill
I have watched this famous island descending incontinently, fecklessly, the stairway which lead to a dark gulf.
Winston Churchill
Good night, then - sleep to gather strength for the morning. For the morning will come. Brightly will it shine on the brave and true, kindly on all who suffer for the cause, glorious upon the tombs of heroes. Thus will shine the dawn.
Winston Churchill
The Dark Ages may return-the Stone Age may return on the gleaming wings of Science and what might now shower immeasureable material blessings upon mankind may even bring about its total destruction. Beware! I say. Time may be short. Referring to the discovery of atomic energy.
Winston Churchill
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
Books, in all their variety, offer the human intellect the means whereby civilisation may be carried triumphantly forward.
Winston Churchill
It may be that those whose work is their pleasure are those who most need the means of banishing it at intervals from their minds.
Winston Churchill
War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
Winston Churchill
Don't take 'no' for an answer, never submit to failure. Do not be fobbed off with mere personal success or acceptance. You will make all kinds of mistakes, but as long as you are generous and true, and also fierce, you cannot hurt the world or events.
Winston Churchill
When you have got a thing where you want, it is a good thing to leave it where it is.
Winston Churchill
Don't give your sons money. Give them horses. Many a good son has been ruined through the acquisition of money but no good son has been ruined through the acquisition of horses. Unless they fell and broke their neck, which when taken at the gallop is a very good death to die.
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
Atlee is a very modest man. And with reason.
Winston Churchill
The English never draw a line without blurring it.
Winston Churchill
Sunshine is my quest.
Winston Churchill
Sometimes our best is simply not enough.... We have to do what is required.
Winston Churchill
