Winston Churchill
Out of intense complexities intense simplicities emerge. Broadly speaking, the short words are the best, and the old words when short are best of all.
Winston Churchill
Danger, if met head on, can be nearly halved
Winston Churchill
Don't talk to me about naval tradition. It's nothing but rum, sodomy, and the lash.
