More quotes by Winston Churchill
It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations. Bartlett's Familiar Quotations is an admirable work, and I studied it intently. The quotations when engraved upon the memory give you good thoughts. They also make you anxious to read the authors and look for more.
Winston Churchill
The English are loth to express their feelings, but in my stall in the choir I could feel the pent-up, passionate emotion, and also the fear of the congregation, not of death or wounds or material loss, but of defeat and the final ruin of Britain.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
This is a war of the unknown warriors but let all strive without failing in faith or in duty, and the dark curse of Hitler will be lifted from our age.
Winston Churchill
An extra yawn one morning in the springtime, an extra snooze one night in the autumn is all that we ask in return for dazzling gifts. We borrow an hour one night in April we pay it back with golden interest five months later.
Winston Churchill
I do not hold that we should rearm in order to fight. I hold that we should rearm in order to parley.
Winston Churchill
The privilege of a university education is a great one the more widely it is extended the better for any country.
Winston Churchill
Golf. Trying to knock a tiny ball into an even smaller hole with implements ill suited to the purpose.
Winston Churchill
Painting a picture is like trying to fight a battle.
Winston Churchill
When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you.
Winston Churchill
Success in life is the ability to move from one mistake to another without loosing enthusiasm.
Winston Churchill
Some people regard private enterprise as a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look on it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse, pulling a sturdy wagon.
Winston Churchill
Go into the sunshine and be happy with what you see.
Winston Churchill
When I get to heaven I mean to spend a considerable portion of my first million years in painting, and so get to the bottom of the subject.
