Winston Churchill
This movement among the Jews is not new... This world-wide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily growing... It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the Nineteenth Century.
Winston Churchill
Lots of folks are forced to skimp to support a government that won't.
Winston Churchill
If you don't have any enemies in life you have never stood up for anything.
Winston Churchill
