More quotes by Winston Churchill
Not to have an adequate air force in the present state of the world is to compromise the foundations of national freedom and independence.
Winston Churchill
Here life itself, life at its best and healthiest, awaits the caprice of the bullet. Let us see the development of the day. All else may stand over, perhaps for ever. Existence is never so sweet as when it is at hazard.
Winston Churchill
Don't give your sons money. Give them horses. Many a good son has been ruined through the acquisition of money but no good son has been ruined through the acquisition of horses. Unless they fell and broke their neck, which when taken at the gallop is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
Criticism is easy achievement is difficult.
Winston Churchill
In Great Britain, governments often change their policies without changing their men. In France, they usually change their men without changing their policy.
Winston Churchill
The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.
Winston Churchill

They will fight amongst themselves for power & India will be lost in political squabbles. A day would come when even air & water would be taxed in India.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
Success is never final.
Winston Churchill
If, however, there is to be a war of nerves let us make sure our nerves are strong and are fortified by the deepest convictions of our hearts.
Winston Churchill
I am not a bit afraid of Siegfried Sassoon. That man can think. I am afraid only of people who cannot think.
Winston Churchill
Before you can inspire with emotion, you must be swamped with it yourself. Before you can move their tears, your own must flow. To convince them, you must yourself, believe.
Winston Churchill
Here Churchill repeats with approval a statement he had first made in January, 1930 at a meeting at the Cannon Street Hotel. Sooner or later you will have to crush Gandhi and the Indian Congress and all they stand for.
Winston Churchill
You ought to let the Jews have Jerusalem it is they who made it famous.
Winston Churchill
Never, ever ever ever ever give up.
Winston Churchill
I am convinced that there is no smarter, handier, or more adaptable body of troops in the world.
Winston Churchill
