More quotes by Winston Churchill
The stations of uncensored expression are closing down the lights are going out but there is still time for those to whom freedom and parliamentary government mean something, to consult together. Let me, then, speak in truth and earnestness while time remains.
Winston Churchill
Any clever person can make plans for winning a war if he has no responsibility for carrying them out.
Winston Churchill
Nowadays we are assailed by a chorus of horrid threats. The Nazi Government exudes through every neutral State inside information of the frightful vengeance they are going to wreak upon us, and they also bawl it around the world by their leather-lunged propaganda machine. If words could kill, we should be dead already.
Winston Churchill
What kind of people do they [the Japanese] think we are?
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
The Navy can lose us the war, but only the Air Force can win it. Therefore our supreme effort must be to gain overwhelming mastery in the Air. The Fighters are our salvation . . . but the Bombers alone provide the means of victory. . . . In no other way at present visible can we hope to overcome the immense military power of Germany.
Winston Churchill
My hand seemed arrested by a silent veto.
Winston Churchill
There is not much collective security in a flock of sheep on the way to the butcher.
Winston Churchill
Dictators ride to and fro upon tigers which they dare not dismount. And the tigers are getting hungry.
Winston Churchill
Saving is a fine thing. Especially when your parents have done it for you.
Winston Churchill
The great defence against aerial menace is to attack the enemy's aircraft as near as possible to their point of departure.
Winston Churchill
Soviet Union foreign policy is a puzzle inside a riddle wrapped in an enigma, and the key is Russian nationalism.
Winston Churchill
Out of the depths of sorrow and sacrifice will be born again the glory of mankind.
Winston Churchill
How often in life must one be content with what one can get!
Winston Churchill
Writing a book is an adventure.
Winston Churchill
Are you insinuating that I am a purveyor of terminological inexactitudes?
Winston Churchill
They feed the crocodile in the hope that he will eat them last.
Winston Churchill
When you're 20 you care what everyone thinks, when you're 40 you stop caring what everyone thinks, when you're 60 you realize no one was ever thinking about you in the first place. You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
Winston Churchill
...the high roads of the future will be clear, not only for us but for all, not only for our time but for a century to come.
Winston Churchill
I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this government: I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
