More quotes by Winston Churchill
We do not covet anything from any nation except their respect.
Winston Churchill
Vast and fearsome as the human scene has become, personal contact of the right people, in the right places, at the right time, may yet have a potent and valuable part to play in the cause of peace which is in our hearts.
Winston Churchill
I am sure that the mistakes of that time will not be repeated we should probably make another set of mistakes.
Winston Churchill
When I'm in office I always keep Members of Parliament talking. If they stopped they might start thinking.
Winston Churchill
We are plunged in a long and grievous struggle. But all will come right if we all work together to the end.
Winston Churchill
May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism.
Winston Churchill
For the first time I heard shots fired in anger, heard bullets strike flesh or whistle through the air.
Winston Churchill
There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word, which means more to me than any other. That word is England.
Winston Churchill
There is only one duty, only one safe course, and that is to try to be right.
Winston Churchill
Unpunctuality is a vile habit.
Winston Churchill
The essence and foundation of House of Commons debating is formal conversation. The set speech, the harangue addressed to constituents, or to the wider public out of doors, has never succeeded much in our small wisely-built chamber. To do any good you have got to get down to grips with the subject and in human touch with the audience.
Winston Churchill
Nothing can save England if she will not save herself. If we lose faith in ourselves, in our capacity to guide and govern, if we lose our will to live, then indeed our story is told.
Winston Churchill
An optimist sees the oportunity in every difficulty.
Winston Churchill
Give me the facts, and I will twist them the way I want, to suit my argument.
Winston Churchill
I think it is the most important subject facing this country, but I cannot get any of my ministers to take any notice.
Winston Churchill
But who in war will not have his laugh amid the skulls?
Winston Churchill
Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.
Winston Churchill
Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the object worship of the state.
Winston Churchill
When you are on a great horse, you have the best seat you will ever have.
Winston Churchill
The trade unions are a long-established and essential part of our national life. We take our stand by these pillars of our British society as it has gradually developed and evolved itself, of the right of individual labouring men to adjust their wages and conditions by collective bargaining, including the right to strike.
Winston Churchill
