More quotes by Winston Churchill
We must have a better word than prefabricated, why not ready-made?
Winston Churchill
When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened
Winston Churchill
If you are going to go through hell, keep going
Winston Churchill
I do think unpunctuality is a vile habit, and all my life I have tried to break myself of it.
Winston Churchill
Achievement is not last, disappointment is not deadly: It is the mettle to proceed with that matters.
Winston Churchill
Praise the humanities, my boy. That'll make them think you're broadminded!

Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
The Russians will try all the rooms in a house, enter those that are not locked, and when they come to one that cannot be broken into, they will withdraw and invite you to dine genially that same evening.
Winston Churchill
Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.
Winston Churchill
It cannot in the opinion of His Majesty's Government be classified as slavery in the extreme acceptance of the word without some risk of terminological inexactitude.
Winston Churchill
We do not covet anything from any nation except their respect.
Winston Churchill
Some civil servants are neither servants nor civil.
Winston Churchill
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.
Winston Churchill
Singapore could only be taken after a siege by an army of at least 50,000 men. It is not considered possible that the Japanese would embark on such a mad enterprise.
Winston Churchill
If I had been an Italian I am sure that I should have been whole-heartedly with you from the start to finish in your triumphant struggle against the bestial appetites and passions of Leninism.
Winston Churchill
Remember the story of the Spanish prisoner. For many years he was confined in a dungeon... One day it occurred to him to push the door of his cell. It was open and it had never been locked.
Winston Churchill
