More quotes by Winston Churchill
It is easier to give directions than advice, and more agreeable to have the right to act, even in a limited sphere, than the privilege to talk at large.
Winston Churchill
It is wonderful what great strides can be made when there is a resolute purpose behind them.
Winston Churchill
Painting is the same kind of problem as unfolding a long, sustained interlocked argument... It is a proposition commanded by a single unity of conception.
Winston Churchill
My greatest good fortune in a life of brilliant experiences has been to find you, and to lead my life with you. I don't feel far away from you out here at all. I feel very near in my heart and also I feel that the nearer I get to honour, the nearer I am to you.
Winston Churchill
Do not criticize your government when out of the country. Never cease to do so when at home
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
All the great things are simple.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
If I was your wife Sir, I'd poison you! Madam, if you were my wife, I'd let you!
Winston Churchill
There is no merit in putting off a war for a year if, when it comes, it is far worse or much harder to win.
Winston Churchill
I have not always been wrong. History will bear me out, particularly as I shall write that history myself.
Winston Churchill
One may imagine that a man who blew the trumpet for his living would be glad to play the violin for his amusement.
Winston Churchill
Little did we guess that what has been called the century of the common man would witness as its outstanding feature more common men killing each other with greater facilities than any other five centuries together in the history of the world.
Winston Churchill
We shape our homes and then our homes shape us.
Winston Churchill
The old wars were decided by their episodes rather than by their tendencies. In this war, the tendencies are far more important than the episodes.
Winston Churchill
I am never going to have anything more to do with politics or politicians. When this war is over I shall confine myself entirely to writing and painting.
Winston Churchill
My only consolation for the failure of the Dardanelles was that God wished things to be prolonged in order to sicken mankind of war, and that therefore He had interfered with a project that would have brought the war to a speedier conclusion.
Winston Churchill
We must have a better word than prefabricated, why not ready-made?
Winston Churchill
I will not pretend that if I had to choose between communism and Nazism I would choose communism.
Winston Churchill
