Image
We were not made by Nature to work, or even to play, from eight o'clock in the morning till midnight. We ought to break our days and our marches into two.
Winston Churchill
Image
Most of the significant contributions that have been made to society have been made by people who were tired.
Winston Churchill
Image
Everything trends towards catastrophe & collapse. I am interested, geared up & happy. Is it not horrible to be built like that?
Winston Churchill
Image
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
Image
May it not also be that the cause of civilization itself will be defended by the skill and devotion of a few thousand airmen? There never has been, I suppose, in all the world, in all the history of war, such an opportunity for youth. The Knights of the Round Table, the Crusaders, all fall back into the past.
Winston Churchill
Image
I have benefited greatly from criticism, and at no time have I suffered a lack thereof.
Winston Churchill
Image
In battles two things are usually required of the Commander-in-Chief: to make a good plan for his army and, secondly, to keep a strong reserve.
Winston Churchill
Image
Elections exist for the sake of the House of Commons and not the House of Commons for the sake of elections.
Winston Churchill
Image
May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism.
Winston Churchill
Image
Historians are apt to judge war ministers less by the victories achieved under their direction than by the political results which flowed from them. Judged by that standard, I am not sure that I shall be held to have done very well.
Winston Churchill
Image
The only traditions of the Royal Navy are rum, sodomy and the lash.
Winston Churchill
Image
If you make 10,000 regulations you destroy all respect for the law.
Winston Churchill
Image
How many have gone? How many more to go? The Admiralty is fast asleep and lethargy & inertia are the order of the day. However everybody seems delighted - so there is nothing to be said. No plans, no enterprise, no struggle to aid the general cause. Just sit still on the spacious throne and snooze.
Winston Churchill
Image
I was on the whole considerably discouraged by my school days... It is not pleasant to feel oneself so completely outclassed and left behind at the very beginning of the race.
Winston Churchill
Image
We are really doing our very best. There are no doubt many mistakes and shortcomings. A lot of things are done none too well. Some things that ought to be done have not yet been done...[But Britain's effort has] justly commanded the wonder and admiration of every friendly nation in the world.
Winston Churchill

Who is not liberal when young, does not have a heart. Who is not conservative when old, does not have a brain.
Winston Churchill
Image
The stations of uncensored expression are closing down the lights are going out but there is still time for those to whom freedom and parliamentary government mean something, to consult together. Let me, then, speak in truth and earnestness while time remains.
Winston Churchill
Image
The power of the Executive to cast a man into prison without formulating any charge known to the law and particularly to deny him the judgement of his peers is in the highest degree odious and is the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist.
Winston Churchill
Image
America, can always be counted upon to do the right thing in the end, having first exhausted the available alternatives.
Winston Churchill

When they told me that by the year 2100 women would rule the world, my reply was 'Still?'
