More quotes by Winston Churchill
Victory is not final. Defeat is not failure. It's all about courage.
Winston Churchill
When you have got a thing where you want, it is a good thing to leave it where it is.
Winston Churchill
... I think it would be so much better for me to learn something which would be useful to me in the army, as well as affording me exercise and amusement.
Winston Churchill
Saving is a fine thing. Especially when your parents have done it for you.
Winston Churchill
No one ever came to grief-except honorable grief-through riding horses. No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle. Young men have often been ruined through owning horses, or through backing horses, but never through riding them unless of course they break their necks, which, taken at a gallop, is a very good death to die.
Winston Churchill
May it not also be that the cause of civilization itself will be defended by the skill and devotion of a few thousand airmen? There never has been, I suppose, in all the world, in all the history of war, such an opportunity for youth. The Knights of the Round Table, the Crusaders, all fall back into the past.
Winston Churchill
No one can understand history without continually relating the long periods which are constantly mentioned to the experiences of our own short lives.
Winston Churchill
There is scarcely anything more important in the government of men than the exact - I will ever say pedantic - observance of the regular forms by which the guilt or innocence of accused persons is determined.
Winston Churchill
The cost of solving the Comet mystery must be reckoned neither in money nor in manpower.
Winston Churchill
The day may dawn when fair play, love for one's fellow men, respect for justice and freedom, will enable tormented generations to march forth serene and triumphant from the hideous epoch in which we have to dwell. Meanwhile, never flinch, never weary, never despair.
Winston Churchill
The object of Parliament is to substitute argument for fisticuffs.
Winston Churchill
The most beautiful voice in the world is that of an educated Southern woman.
Winston Churchill
Danger gathers upon our path. We cannot afford - we have no right - to look back. We must look forward... The stronger the advocate of monarchical principle a man may be, the more zealously he must now endeavor to fortify the Throne and to give to His Majesty's successor that strength which can only come from the love of a united nation and Empire.
Winston Churchill
Everyone has a right to pronounce foreign names as he chooses.
Winston Churchill
Lots of folks are forced to skimp to support a government that won't.
Winston Churchill
The Government of India had imprisoned Mr. Gandhi and they had been sitting outside his cell door begging him to help them out of their difficulties.
Winston Churchill
Although always prepared for martyrdom, I preferred that it should be postponed.
Winston Churchill
All dogs look up to you. All cats look down on you. Only the pig looks at you as an equal
Winston Churchill
I drink a great deal. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form.
Winston Churchill
It is one thing to see the forward path and another to be able to take it. But it is better to have an ambitious plan than none at all.
Winston Churchill
