More quotes by Winston Churchill
His name is Rufus II-but the II is silent.
Winston Churchill
The great defence against aerial menace is to attack the enemy's aircraft as near as possible to their point of departure.
Winston Churchill
I was only the servant of my country and had I, at any moment, failed to express her unflinching resolve to fight and conquer, I should at once have been rightly cast aside.
Winston Churchill
There is no greater mistake than to suppose that platitudes, smooth words, timid policies, offer today a path to safety.
Winston Churchill
Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse.
Winston Churchill
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
You must sleep sometime between lunch and dinner, and no halfway measures. Take off your clothes and get into bed. That's what I always do.

Winston Churchill
Preparation is - if not the key to genius - then at least the key to sounding like a genius.
Winston Churchill
Nowadays we are assailed by a chorus of horrid threats. The Nazi Government exudes through every neutral State inside information of the frightful vengeance they are going to wreak upon us, and they also bawl it around the world by their leather-lunged propaganda machine. If words could kill, we should be dead already.
Winston Churchill
More than 80 per cent of the British casualties of the Great War were English. More than 80 per cent of the taxation is paid by the English taxpayers. We are entitled to mention these facts, and to draw authority and courage from them.
Winston Churchill
I am easily satisfied with the very best.
Winston Churchill
The oldest habit in the world for resisting change is to complain that unless the remedy to the disease should be universally applied it should not be applied at all. But you must start somewhere.
Winston Churchill
Strategy is all very well, but it pays to give thought from time to time to the results.
Winston Churchill
Today I may way before an awestruck world I am still master of my fate. I am still captain of my soul.
Winston Churchill
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
I only believe in statistics that I doctored myself
Winston Churchill
There is, therefore, wisdom in reserving one's decisions as long as possible and until all the facts and forces that will be potent at the moment are revealed.
Winston Churchill
I have never promised anything but blood, tears, toil and sweat. Now, however we have a new experience. We have a victory - a remarkable and definite victory. The bright gleam has caught the helmets of our soldiers and warmed and cheered all our hearts.
Winston Churchill
