More quotes by Winston Churchill
It is all true, or it ought to be and more and better besides.
Winston Churchill
I have never promised anything but blood, tears, toil and sweat. Now, however we have a new experience. We have a victory - a remarkable and definite victory. The bright gleam has caught the helmets of our soldiers and warmed and cheered all our hearts.
Winston Churchill
When I look round to see how we can win the war, I see that there is only one sure path . . . and that is absolutely devastating, exterminating attack by very heavy bombers from this country upon the Nazi homeland.
Winston Churchill
Just as the sentence contains one idea in all its fullness, so the paragraph should embrace a distinct episode and as sentences should follow one another in harmonious sequence, so paragraphs must fit into another like the automatic couplings of railway carriages.
Winston Churchill
One can usually put one's thoughts better in one's own words.
Winston Churchill
In Critical and baffling situations, it is always best to return to first principle and simple action
Winston Churchill
Golf. Trying to knock a tiny ball into an even smaller hole with implements ill suited to the purpose.
Winston Churchill
If you cannot read all your books...fondle them---peer into them, let them fall open where they will, read from the first sentence that arrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your own hands, arrange them on your own plan so that you at least know where they are. Let them be your friends let them, at any rate, be your acquaintances.
Winston Churchill
All babies look like me. But then, I look like all babies.
Winston Churchill
I have benefited greatly from criticism, and at no time have I suffered a lack thereof.
Winston Churchill
Rules were made for fools to follow and wise men to be guided by.
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
Nature will not be admired by proxy.
Winston Churchill
Talking death seriously is one of the tragedies of youth
Winston Churchill
It is a fine game to play - the game of politics - and it is well worth waiting for a good hand before really plunging.
Winston Churchill
Before Alamein we never had a victory. After Alamein we never had a defeat.
Winston Churchill
There are men in the world who derive an exaltation from the proximity of disaster and ruin, as other from success.
Winston Churchill
When I warned them [the French] that Britain would fight on alone whatever they did, their generals told their Prime Minister and his divided Cabinet, In three weeks England will have her neck wrung like a chicken. Some chicken! Some neck!
Winston Churchill
Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter.
Winston Churchill
Every man should ask himself each day whether he is not too readily accepting negative solutions.
Winston Churchill
