More quotes by Winston Churchill
We have a lot of anxieties, and one cancels out another very often.
Winston Churchill
At the bottom of all the tributes paid to democracy is the little man, walking into the little booth, with a little pencil, making a little cross on a little bit of paper-no amount of rhetoric or voluminous discussion can possibly diminish the overwhelming importance of the point.
Winston Churchill
This movement among the Jews is not new... This world-wide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily growing... It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the Nineteenth Century.
Winston Churchill
I cannot but think we have much to be thankful for, and more still to hope for in the future.
Winston Churchill
When you are winning a war almost everything that happens can be claimed to be right and wise.
Winston Churchill
The chief aim of wisdom is to enable one to bear with the stupidity of the ignorant.
Winston Churchill
The man who can master his time can master nearly anything.
Winston Churchill
It is no use dealing with illusions and make-believes. We must look at the facts. The world ... is too dangerous for anyone to be able to afford to nurse illusions. We must look at realities.
Winston Churchill
In finance everything that is agreeable is unsound and everything that is sound is disagreeable.
Winston Churchill
The reserve of modern assertions is sometimes pushed to extremes, in which the fear of being contradicted leads the writer to strip himself of almost all sense and meaning.
Winston Churchill
I feel like an aeroplane at the end of its flight, in the dusk, with the petrol running out, in search of a safe landing.
Winston Churchill
My wife and I tried two or three times in the last 40 years to have breakfast together, but it was so disagreeable we had to stop.
Winston Churchill
Our inheritance of well-founded, slowly conceived codes of honor, morals and manners, the passionate convictions which so many hundreds of millions share together of the principles of freedom and justice, are far more precious to us than anything which scientific discoveries could bestow.
Winston Churchill
I only believe in statistics that I doctored myself
Winston Churchill
He [President Franklin D. Roosevelt] died in harness, and we may well say in battle harness, like his soldiers, sailors and airmen who died side by side with ours and carrying out their tasks to the end all over the world. What an enviable death was his.
Winston Churchill
We shall draw from the heart of suffering itself the means of inspiration and survival.
Winston Churchill
I do not apologize for the takeover of the region by the Jews from the Palestinians in the same way I don't apologize for the takeover of America by the whites from the Red Indians or the takeover of Australia from the blacks. It is natural for a superior race to dominate an inferior one.
Winston Churchill
Nothing will bring American sympathy along with us so much as American blood shed in the field.
Winston Churchill
Any clever person can make plans for winning a war if he has no responsibility for carrying them out.
Winston Churchill
A small lie needs a bodyguard of bigger lies to protect it.
