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

I do not admit... that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America, or the black people of Australia... by the fact that a stronger race, a higher grade race... has come in and taken its place.

He spoke with more eloquence than wisdom.
Winston Churchill
Haven't you learned yet that I put something more than whisky into my speeches.

When Iraq becomes strong enough in our opinion to stand alone, we shall be in a position to state that our task has been fulfilled, and that Iraq is an independent sovereign state.

Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word, which means more to me than any other. That word is England.
Winston Churchill
There is no purpose in living where there is nothing to do.
Winston Churchill
I trust and believe that this College, this seed that we have sown, will grow to shelter and nurture generations who may add most notably to the strength and happiness of our people, and to the knowledge and peaceful progress of the world. 'The mighty oak from an acorn towers A tiny seed can fill a field with flowers.'
Winston Churchill
Human beings are of two classes: those whose work is work and whose pleasure is pleasure and those whose work and pleasure are one.
Winston Churchill
The essence and foundation of House of Commons debating is formal conversation. The set speech, the harangue addressed to constituents, or to the wider public out of doors, has never succeeded much in our small wisely-built chamber. To do any good you have got to get down to grips with the subject and in human touch with the audience.
Winston Churchill
I am weary of a task which is done and I hope I shall not shrink when the aftermath ends. My only wish is to live peacefully out the remaining years - if years they be.
Winston Churchill
Is the only lesson of history to be that mankind is unteachable?
Winston Churchill
Baldwin often times stumbles over the truth, but he always picks himself up and hurries on as if nothing had happened.
Winston Churchill
I gather, young man, that you wish to be a Member of Parliament. The first lesson that you must learn is, when I call for statistics about the rate of infant mortality, what I want is proof that fewer babies died when I was Prime Minister than when anyone else was Prime Minister. That is a political statistic.
Winston Churchill
The maxim, Nothing prevails but perfection, may be spelled PARALYSIS.
Winston Churchill
