More quotes by Winston Churchill
Your greatest fears are created by your imagination. Don't give in to them.
Winston Churchill
Nowadays we are assailed by a chorus of horrid threats. The Nazi Government exudes through every neutral State inside information of the frightful vengeance they are going to wreak upon us, and they also bawl it around the world by their leather-lunged propaganda machine. If words could kill, we should be dead already.
Winston Churchill
It would be an inconvenient rule if nothing could be done until everything can be done.
Winston Churchill
The element of the unexpected and the unforeseeable is what gives some of its relish to life and saves us from falling into the mechanical thralldom of the logicians.
Winston Churchill
In war as in life, it is often necessary when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.
Winston Churchill
The loyalties which center upon number one are enormous. If he trips, he must be sustained. If he make mistakes, they must be covered. If he sleeps, he must not be wantonly disturbed. If he is no good, he must be pole-axed.
Winston Churchill
There are no limits to the majestic future which lies before the mighty expanse of Canada with its virile, aspiring, cultured, and generous-hearted people.
Winston Churchill
I think it is the most important subject facing this country, but I cannot get any of my ministers to take any notice.
Winston Churchill
I hope, sir, that I will shoot your picture on your hundredth birthday. I don't see why not, young man. You look reasonably fit and healthy.
Winston Churchill
What does all this stuff about flying saucers amount to? What can it mean? What is the truth?
Winston Churchill
Put together a seaman, soldier and airman and what do you get? The sum of all fears.
Winston Churchill
Let us set up a standard around which the brave and the loyal can rally.
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
A single glass of champagne imparts a feeling of exhilaration. The nerves are braced the imagination is stirred, the wits become more nimble.
Winston Churchill
Science has given to this generation the means of unlimited disaster or of unlimited progress. There will remain the greater task of directing knowledge lastingly towards the purpose of peace and human good.
Winston Churchill
Do not turn the superior eye of critical passivity upon these efforts .... We must not be ambitious. We cannot aspire to masterpieces. We may content ourselves with a joy ride in a paint-box.
Winston Churchill
War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
Winston Churchill
We have no lasting friends, no lasting enemies, only lasting interests.
Winston Churchill
If you recognize anyone it does not mean you like them.
Winston Churchill
Before America entered the war [WW2] I knew we could not win it, but after she entered I knew we could not lose
