More quotes by Winston Churchill
It is not given to human beings, happily for them, for otherwise life would be intolerable, to foresee or to predict to any large extent the unfolding course of events.
Winston Churchill
It is all right to rat, but you can't re-rat.
Winston Churchill
These, Gentlemen, are the opinions upon which I base my facts.
Winston Churchill
Writing a long and substantial book is like having a friend and companion at your side, to whom you can always turn for comfort and amusement, and whose society becomes more attractive as a new and widening field of interest is lighted in the mind.
Winston Churchill
...every offensive lost its force as it proceeded. It was like throwing a bucket of water over the floor. It first rushed forward, then soaked forward, and finally stopped altogether until another bucket could be brought.
Winston Churchill
The flame of Christian ethics is still our highest guide.
Winston Churchill
There must not be lacking in our leadership something of that spirit of the Austrian corporal who, when all had fallen into ruins around him, and when Germany seemed to have fallen into chaos, did not hesitate to march forth against the vast army of victorious nations and has already turned the tables decisively against them.
Winston Churchill
Things don't happen to me. I happen to things!
Winston Churchill
Never give up. Never give up. Never give up.
Winston Churchill
Gentleman, I am hardening on this enterprise. I repeat, I am now hardening towards this enterprise.
Winston Churchill
I have lived seventy-eight years without hearing of bloody places like Cambodia.
Winston Churchill
Nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without result.
Winston Churchill
A man can wear out a particular part of his mind by continually using and tiring it, just in the same way he can wear out the elbows of his coat.
Winston Churchill
We need to be strong in order to avoid war and to win. A politician looks forward only to the next election. A statesman looks forward to the next generation. Any person who is over 30 and is not a conservative, has no brains.
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
Air power can either paralyze the enemy's military action or compel him to devote to the defense of his bases and communications a share of his straitened resources far greater that what we need in the attack.
Winston Churchill
Politics is more dangerous than war, for in war you are only killed once.
Winston Churchill
We shall not fail or falter we shall not weaken or tire. Neither the sudden shock of battle, nor the long-drawn trials of vigilance and exertion will wear us down. Give us the tools and we will finish the job.
Winston Churchill
Most of the significant contributions that have been made to society have been made by people who were tired.
Winston Churchill
The loyalties which center upon number one are enormous. If he trips, he must be sustained. If he make mistakes, they must be covered. If he sleeps, he must not be wantonly disturbed. If he is no good, he must be pole-axed.
