More quotes by Winston Churchill
Indeed I do not think we should be justified in using any but the more sombre tones and colours while our people, our Empire, and indeed the whole English-speaking world are passing through a dark and deadly valley.
Winston Churchill
Without execution, thinking is mere idleness.
Winston Churchill
If you cannot read all your books...fondle them---peer into them, let them fall open where they will, read from the first sentence that arrests the eye, set them back on the shelves with your own hands, arrange them on your own plan so that you at least know where they are. Let them be your friends let them, at any rate, be your acquaintances.
Winston Churchill
When I find a ladybug I ask the butler to take it outside instead of killing it.
Winston Churchill
There is no worse mistake in public leadership than to hold out false hopes soon to be swept away. The British people can face peril or misfortune with fortitude and buoyancy, but they bitterly resent being deceived or finding that those responsible for their affairs are themselves dwelling in a fool's paradise.
Winston Churchill
The British people are good all through. You can test them as you would put a bucket into the sea and always find it salt.
Winston Churchill
Money is like manure, its only good if you spread it around.
Winston Churchill
We hoped to land a wild cat that would tear out the bowels of the Boche. Instead we have stranded a vast whale with its tail flopping about in the water.
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
The chief aim of wisdom is to enable one to bear with the stupidity of the ignorant.
Winston Churchill
A nation that forgets its past has no future.
Winston Churchill
I have not become the Kings First Minister in order to preside over the liquidation of the British Empire.
Winston Churchill
If you are going to go through hell, keep going
Winston Churchill
The person of truth must be covered with bodyguards of lies.
Winston Churchill
What is adequacy? Adequacy is no standard at all.
Winston Churchill
Democracy is a very bad form of government ... but all the others are so much worse.
Winston Churchill
Every garden presents innumerable fascinating problems.
Winston Churchill
The old wars were decided by their episodes rather than by their tendencies. In this war, the tendencies are far more important than the episodes.
Winston Churchill
No one can understand history without continually relating the long periods which are constantly mentioned to the experiences of our own short lives.
Winston Churchill
I would tell myself that I was about to address the largest mass assembly of idiots ever gathered in the history of mankind.
Winston Churchill
