More quotes by Winston Churchill
Curse ruthless time! Curse our mortality. How cruelly short is the allotted span for all we must cram into it!
Winston Churchill
Before the war it had seemed incredible that such terrors and slaughters, even if they began, could last more than a few months. After the first two years it was difficult to believe that they would ever end.
Winston Churchill
An iron curtain has descended over Europe.
Winston Churchill
The latest refinements of science are linked with the cruelties of the Stone Age.
Winston Churchill
The object of Parliament is to substitute argument for fisticuffs.
Winston Churchill
The water was not fit to drink. To make it palatable, we had to add whisky. By diligent effort, I learned to like it.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
I'd rather spend half an hour in the company of a top carpenter, than three hours in the company of an average brain surgeon
Winston Churchill
Armed with a paint-box, one cannot be bored, one cannot be left at a loose end, one cannot 'have several days on one's hands.
Winston Churchill
There comes into the life of every man a task for which he and he alone is uniquely suited. What a shame if that moment finds him either unwilling or unprepared for that which would become his finest hour.
Winston Churchill
It is alarming ... to see Mr Gandhi, a seditious Middle Temple lawyer, now posing as a fakir of a type well-known in the East, striding half-naked up the steps of the Vice-regal Palace while he is still organising and conducting a campaign of civil disobedience.
Winston Churchill
Don't give your sons money. Give them horses. Many a good son has been ruined through the acquisition of money but no good son has been ruined through the acquisition of horses. Unless they fell and broke their neck, which when taken at the gallop is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
God for a month of power & a good shorthand writer.
Winston Churchill
The flame of Christian ethics is still our highest guide.
Winston Churchill
If you want to discover new oceans, you must first have the courage to leave shore.
Winston Churchill
Power will go to the hands of rascals, rogues, freebooters all Indian leaders will be of low calibre & men of straw. They will have sweet tongues & silly hearts. They will fight amongst themselves for power & India will be lost in political squabbles. A day would come when even air & water would be taxed in India.
Winston Churchill
No compromise with the main purpose no peace till victory no pact with unrepentant wrong.
Winston Churchill
