Winston Churchill
This is a war of the unknown warriors but let all strive without failing in faith or in duty, and the dark curse of Hitler will be lifted from our age.
Winston Churchill
The jury system has come to stand for all we mean by English justice. The scrutiny of 12 honest jurors provides defendants and plaintiffs alike a safeguard from arbitrary perversion of the law.
Winston Churchill
I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion.
Winston Churchill
I am in favor of deliberately spreading methodically prepared bacteria among people and animals -- mildew ... to destroy the harvests, anthrax to destroy horses and livestock, and the plague, in order to kill not only entire armies, but also the inhabitants of large regions.
Winston Churchill
There is more blood than paint upon these hands. All those thousands of men killed. We thought it would be a little job, and so it might have been if it had begun in the right way.
Winston Churchill
