More quotes by Winston Churchill
The Navy can lose us the war, but only the Air Force can win it. Therefore our supreme effort must be to gain overwhelming mastery in the Air. The Fighters are our salvation . . . but the Bombers alone provide the means of victory. . . . In no other way at present visible can we hope to overcome the immense military power of Germany.
Winston Churchill
A hopeful disposition is not the sole qualification to be a prophet.
Winston Churchill
An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
Winston Churchill
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.
Winston Churchill
You gotta have some balls to be a female PM in England
Winston Churchill

Winston Churchill
We Shall come through! We cannot tell when, we cannot tell how, but we shall come through.
Winston Churchill
I was shown a picture by Cézanne of a blank wall of a house, which he had made instinct with the most delicate lights and colours.
Winston Churchill
I'd rather argue against a hundred idiots, than have one agree with me.
Winston Churchill
We shall show mercy, but we shall not ask for it.
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
The malice of the wicked was reinforced by the weakness of the virtuous.
Winston Churchill
The English never draw a line without blurring it.
Winston Churchill
I play for high stakes and given an audience - there is no act too daring or too noble.
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
One can usually put one's thoughts better in one's own words.
Winston Churchill
My only consolation for the failure of the Dardanelles was that God wished things to be prolonged in order to sicken mankind of war, and that therefore He had interfered with a project that would have brought the war to a speedier conclusion.
Winston Churchill
Hatred plays the same part in government as acid in chemistry.
Winston Churchill
