Winston Churchill
Nothing should be done for spite's sake.
Winston Churchill
Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.
Winston Churchill
I have never accepted what many people have kindly said - namely that I inspired the nation. Their will was resolute and remorseless, and as it proved, unconquerable. It fell to me to express it.
Winston Churchill
Your day will go the way the corners of your mouth turn.
Winston Churchill
Art is to beauty what honor is to honesty.
Winston Churchill
