Winston Churchill
Sunshine is my quest.
Winston Churchill
Little did we guess that what has been called the century of the common man would witness as its outstanding feature more common men killing each other with greater facilities than any other five centuries together in the history of the world.

Winston Churchill
When you're 20 you care what everyone thinks, when you're 40 you stop caring what everyone thinks, when you're 60 you realize no one was ever thinking about you in the first place. You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
When a new book appears one should read an old one.
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.
Winston Churchill
You create your own universe as you go along. The stronger your imagination, the more variegated your universe. When you leave off dreaming, the universe ceases to exist.
Winston Churchill
There is no purpose in living where there is nothing to do.
Winston Churchill
An efficient and a successful administration manifests itself equally in small as in great matters.
