Perfecting and selling your writing is a lifelong task. If you are a persistent writer, you can expect your abilities to improve with time. Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.

We shape our buildings thereafter they shape us.
Winston Churchill
Image
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.

The facilities for advanced education must be evened out and multiplied. No one who can take advantage of a higher education should be denied this chance. You cannot conduct a modern community except with an adequate supply of persons upon whose education, whether humane, technical, or scientific, much time and money have been spent.

Life is a test and this world a place of trial.
Winston Churchill
Image
The destiny of man is not measured by material computations. When great forces are on the move in the world, we learn we’re spirits—not animals…. There’s something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty.
Winston Churchill

Some civil servants are neither servants nor civil.
Winston Churchill
Image
To be really happy and really safe, one ought to have at least two or three hobbies, and they must all be real.
Winston Churchill
Image
I don't like standing near the edge of a platform when an express train is passing through. I like to stand right back and if possible get a pillar between me and the train. I don't like to stand by the side of a ship and look down into the water. A second's action would end everything. A few drops of desperation.
