More quotes by Winston Churchill
To sit at one's table on a sunny morning, with four clear hours of uninterruptible security, plenty of nice white paper, and a Squeezer pen - that is true happiness.
Winston Churchill
I am never going to have anything more to do with politics or politicians. When this war is over I shall confine myself entirely to writing and painting.
Winston Churchill
If one has to submit, it is wasteful not to do so with the best grace possible.
Winston Churchill
The price of greatness is responsibility.
Winston Churchill
Never abandon life. There is a way out of everything except death.
Winston Churchill
I built with my own hands ... a large swimming-pool which was filtered to limpidity and could be heated to supplement our fickle sunshine.
Winston Churchill
The Pashtun tribes are always engaged in private or public war. Every man is a warrior, a politician and a theologian Every large house is a real feudal fortress....Eve ry family cultivates its vendetta every clan, its feud....Nothing is ever forgotten and very few debts are left unpaid.
Winston Churchill
And a pamphlet called Pick me up There is no genuine hatred against Herr Hitler.
Winston Churchill
I thought of a remark . . . that the United States is like a 'gigantic boiler. Once the fire is lighted under it there is no limit to the power it can generate.' Being saturated and satiated with emotion and sensation, I went to bed and slept the sleep of the saved and thankful.
Winston Churchill
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. Some of us think holding on makes us strong but sometimes it is letting go. Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.
Winston Churchill
We do not covet anything from any nation except their respect.
Winston Churchill
Mr. Chamberlain loves the working man, he loves to see him work.
Winston Churchill
The painter wanders and loiters contentedly from place to place, always on the lookout for some brilliant butterfly of a picture which can be caught and carried safely home.
Winston Churchill
I gather, young man, that you wish to be a Member of Parliament. The first lesson that you must learn is, when I call for statistics about the rate of infant mortality, what I want is proof that fewer babies died when I was Prime Minister than when anyone else was Prime Minister. That is a political statistic.
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
It is one thing to see the forward path and another to be able to take it. But it is better to have an ambitious plan than none at all.
Winston Churchill
I do think unpunctuality is a vile habit, and all my life I have tried to break myself of it.
Winston Churchill
I like things to happen, and if they don't happen I like to make them happen.
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
Although personally I am quite content with existing explosives, I feel we must not stand in the path of improvement.
Winston Churchill
