Winston Churchill
He sees with amazement that our defeats are but the stepping stones to victory and that all his victories are stepping stones to ruin.

Winston Churchill
Never, never, never give up.
Winston Churchill
I have had to eat my own words many times, and I have found it a very nourishing diet.
Winston Churchill
You must put your head into the lion's mouth if the performance is to be a success.
Winston Churchill
