More quotes by Winston Churchill
If you're going through hell, keep going.
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
Some people did not like this ceremonious style. But after all when you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite.
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
Victory is only wrested by running risks.
Winston Churchill
I should have liked to be asked to say what I knew. They always tried to ask what I did not know. When I would have willingly displayed my knowledge, they sought to expose my ignorance. This sort of treatment had only one result: I did not do well in examinations
Winston Churchill
The essence and foundation of House of Commons debating is formal conversation. The set speech, the harangue addressed to constituents, or to the wider public out of doors, has never succeeded much in our small wisely-built chamber. To do any good you have got to get down to grips with the subject and in human touch with the audience.
Winston Churchill
If you mean to profit, learn to please.
Winston Churchill
All this contains much that is obviously true, and much that is relevant unfortunately, what is obviously true is not relevant, and what is relevant is not obviously true.
Winston Churchill
There are bitter weeds in England.
Winston Churchill
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
Winston Churchill
Elections exist for the sake of the House of Commons and not the House of Commons for the sake of elections.
Winston Churchill
The reason for having diplomatic relations is not to confer a compliment, but to secure a convenience. [On diplomatic recognition of the People's Republic of China]
Winston Churchill
You must understand that this war is not against Hitler or National Socialism, but against the strength of the German people, which is to be smashed once and for all, regardless of whether it is in the hands of Hitler or a Jesuit priest.
Winston Churchill
Perhaps it is better to be irresponsible and right, than to be responsible and wrong.
Winston Churchill
The substitution of the internal combustion engine for the horse marked a very gloomy milestone in the progress of mankind.
Winston Churchill
More than 80 per cent of the British casualties of the Great War were English. More than 80 per cent of the taxation is paid by the English taxpayers. We are entitled to mention these facts, and to draw authority and courage from them.
Winston Churchill
It is with deep grief I watch the clattering down of the British Empire with all its glories and all the services it has rendered to mankind.
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
Preposition: An enormously versatile part of grammar, as in 'What made you pick this book I didn't want to be read to out of up for?'
Winston Churchill
