Winston Churchill
Don't give your son money. As far as you can afford it, give him horses.

Winston Churchill
The substance of the eminent Socialist gentlemen's speech is that making a profit is a sin. It is my belief that the real sin is taking a loss!
Winston Churchill
Remember the story of the Spanish prisoner. For many years he was confined in a dungeon... One day it occurred to him to push the door of his cell. It was open and it had never been locked.
Winston Churchill
Never engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
Winston Churchill
Play the game for more than you can afford to lose... only then will you learn the game.
Winston Churchill
A man who gets the reputation of rising at dawn can sleep to noon.
Winston Churchill
Is it possible to get another key? I think I've left mine in the room.
Winston Churchill
