Without courage all other virtues lose their meaning.
Winston Churchill
Image
I always like to learn, but I don't always like to be taught.
Winston Churchill
Image
I do not see any other way of realizing our hopes about World Organization in five or six days. Even the Almighty took seven.
Winston Churchill
Image
I propose that 100,000 degenerate Britons should be forcibly sterilized and others put in labour camps to halt the decline of the British race.
Winston Churchill
Image
Success is never final.
Winston Churchill
Image
I no longer listen to what people say, I just watch what they do. Behavior never lies.
Winston Churchill
Image
In finance everything that is agreeable is unsound and everything that is sound is disagreeable.
Winston Churchill
