More quotes by Winston Churchill
After a time, civil servants tend to become no longer servants and no longer civil.
Winston Churchill
Courage is the greatest virtue because it guarantees all the rest.
Winston Churchill
Those who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.
Winston Churchill
Nothing is perfect on the human stage.
Winston Churchill
That long (Canadian) frontier from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, guarded only by neighbourly respect and honourable obligations, as an example to every country and a pattern for the future of the world.
Winston Churchill
Those who plan do better than those who do not plan, even should they rarely stick to their plan.
Winston Churchill
Although always prepared for martyrdom, I preferred that it should be postponed.
Winston Churchill
Some people regard private enterprise as a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look on it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse, pulling a sturdy wagon.
Winston Churchill
No one ever came to grief-except honorable grief-through riding horses. No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle. Young men have often been ruined through owning horses, or through backing horses, but never through riding them unless of course they break their necks, which, taken at a gallop, is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
One day President Roosevelt told me that he was asking publicly for suggestions about what the war should be called. I said at once 'The Unnecessary War'.
Winston Churchill
I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.
Winston Churchill
The dictator, in all his pride, is held in the grip of his party machine. He can go forward he cannot go back. He must blood his hounds and show them sport, or else, like Actaeon of old, be devoured by them. All-strong without, he is all-weak within.
Winston Churchill
To each there comes in their lifetime a special moment when they are figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to them and fitted to their talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which could have been their finest hour.
Winston Churchill
There is in the act of preparing, the moment you start caring.
Winston Churchill
Unless some effective supranational government can be set up and brought quickly into action, the prospects of peace and human progress are dark and doubtful.
Winston Churchill
Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common... Celebrate it every day.
Winston Churchill
If a woman has It, she doesn't need anything else but if she doesn't have It, it doesn't matter what else she has.
Winston Churchill
They had bombed London, whether on purpose or not, and the British people and London especially should know that we could hit back. It would be good for the morale of us all.
Winston Churchill
A nation that forgets its past has no future.
Winston Churchill
A nation that fails to honor its heroes, soon will have no heroes to honor.
Winston Churchill
