More quotes by Winston Churchill
Painting is the same kind of problem as unfolding a long, sustained interlocked argument... It is a proposition commanded by a single unity of conception.
Winston Churchill
There is the solution which I respectfully offer to you in this Address to which I have given the title The Sinews of Peace.
Winston Churchill
The facilities for advanced education must be evened out and multiplied. No one who can take advantage of a higher education should be denied this chance. You cannot conduct a modern community except with an adequate supply of persons upon whose education, whether humane, technical, or scientific, much time and money have been spent.
Winston Churchill
If you want to discover new oceans, you must first have the courage to leave shore.

Success is never final.
Winston Churchill
Civilisation will not last, freedom will not survive, peace will not be kept, unless a very large majority of mankind unite together to defend them and show themselves possessed of a constabulary power before which barbaric and atavistic forces will stand in awe.
Winston Churchill
I was happy as a child with my toys in my nursery. I been happier every year since I became a man. But this interlude of school makes a somber grey patch upon the chart of my journey. It was a unending spell of worries that did not then seem petty, and of toil uncheered by fruition a time of discomfort, restriction and purposeless monotony.
Winston Churchill
Difficulties mastered are opportunities won.
Winston Churchill
Please put the ladybug outside without harming her. (to his butler)
Winston Churchill
Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour.'
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
God alone knows how great it is. All I hope is that it is not too late. I am very much afraid that it is. We can only do our best.
Winston Churchill
Victory is the beautiful, bright-colored flower. Transport is the stem without which it could never have blossomed.
Winston Churchill
