More quotes by Winston Churchill
The world today is ruled by harassed politicians absorbed in getting into office or turning out the other man so that not much room is left for debating the great issues on their merits

Winston Churchill
What kind of people do they [the Japanese] think we are?
Winston Churchill
I never slept as soundly as the night following Pearl Harbor. For I knew that The American Race would now be entering the war and it would never be the same.
Winston Churchill
The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.
Winston Churchill
The soul of freedom is deathless it cannot, and will not perish.
Winston Churchill
[The Balkans] produce more history than they can consume.
Winston Churchill
In time of war, soldiers, however sensible, care a great deal more on some occasions about slaking their thirst than about the danger of enteric fever. Better known as typhoid, the disease is often spread by drinking contaminated water.
Winston Churchill
The Times is speechless, and takes three columns to express its speechlessness.
Winston Churchill
My education was interrupted only by my schooling.
Winston Churchill
