It has not fallen to your lot to command great armies. You had to create them, organize them and inspire them.
Winston Churchill
Never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
Winston Churchill

Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
If we win, nobody will care. If we lose, there will be nobody to care.

Can a nation remain healthy, can all nations draw together in a world whose brightest stars are film stars?
Winston Churchill
When you're 20 you care what everyone thinks, when you're 40 you stop caring what everyone thinks, when you're 60 you realize no one was ever thinking about you in the first place. You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
