More quotes by Winston Churchill
The future is unknowable, but the past should give us hope.
Winston Churchill
It may well be that we shall by a process of sublime irony have reached a state in this story where safety will be the sturdy child of terror, and survival the twin brother of annihilation.
Winston Churchill
...to win by one is enough.
Winston Churchill
My greatest good fortune in a life of brilliant experiences has been to find you, and to lead my life with you. I don't feel far away from you out here at all. I feel very near in my heart and also I feel that the nearer I get to honour, the nearer I am to you.
Winston Churchill
Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room.
Winston Churchill
Those whose work and pleasure are one... are... Fortune's favoured children.
Winston Churchill
They say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds.
Winston Churchill
Young people at universities study to achieve knowledge and not to learn a trade. We must all learn how to support ourselves, but we must also learn how to live. We need a lot of engineers in the modern world, but we do not want a world of modern engineers.
Winston Churchill
'No comment' is a splendid expression. I am using it again and again.
Winston Churchill
Beware of driving men to desperation. Even a cornered rat is dangerous.
Winston Churchill
We shall defend every village, every town and every city. The vast mass of London itself, fought street by street, could easily devour an entire hostile army and we would rather see London laid in ruins and ashes than that it should be tamely and abjectly enslaved.
Winston Churchill
If the past sits in judgment on the present, the future will be lost.
Winston Churchill
Atlee is a very modest man. And with reason.
Winston Churchill
Like other systems in decay, the Roman Empire continued to function for several generations after its vitality was sapped. For nearly a hundred years our Island was one of the scenes of conflict between a dying civilisation and lusty, famishing barbarism.
Winston Churchill
In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.
Winston Churchill
In all the twelve years I was at school no one ever succeeded in making me write a Latin verse or learn any Greek except the alphabet.
Winston Churchill
One must regard the hyphen as a blemish to be avoided wherever possible.
Winston Churchill
We are plunged in a long and grievous struggle. But all will come right if we all work together to the end.
Winston Churchill
It is not alone that property, in all its forms, is struck at, but that liberty, in all its forms, is challenged by the fundamental conceptions of socialism.
Winston Churchill
The malice of the wicked was reinforced by the weakness of the virtuous.
Winston Churchill
