Make for the children an evening of happiness in a world of storm. Let the children have their night of fun and laughter... resolved that by our daring, these same children shall not be denied their right to live in a free and decent world.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

Make sure that the beer - fou...

Make sure that the beer - four pints a week - goes to the troops under fire before any of the parties in the rear get a drop.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

I am weary of a task which is...

I am weary of a task which is done and I hope I shall not shrink when the aftermath ends. My only wish is to live peacefully out the remaining years - if years they be.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

The English are loth to expre...

The English are loth to express their feelings, but in my stall in the choir I could feel the pent-up, passionate emotion, and also the fear of the congregation, not of death or wounds or material loss, but of defeat and the final ruin of Britain.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

Sure I am this day we are mas...

Sure I am this day we are masters of our fate, that the task which has been set before us is not above our strength; that its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

In Success you deserve it and...

In Success you deserve it and in defeat, you need it.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

I do not understand the squeamishness about the use of gas. I am strongly in favour of using poisonous gas against uncivilized tribes.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

Achievement is not last, disa...

Achievement is not last, disappointment is not deadly: It is the mettle to proceed with that matters.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

A study of Disease-of Pestile...

A study of Disease-of Pestilences methodically prepared and deliberately launched upon man and beast-is certainly being pursue in the laboratories of more than one great country. Blight to destroy crops, Anthrax to slay horses and cattle, Plague to poison not armies but whole districts - such are the lines along which military science is remorselessly advancing.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

There is a place for everyone...

There is a place for everyone, man and woman, old and young, hale and halt; service in a thousand forms is open. There is no room now for the dilettante, the weakling, for the shirker, or the sluggard. From the highest to the humblest tasks, all are of equal honor; all have their part to play.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

Happy are the painters, for they shall not be lonely. Light and colour, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

The Pashtun tribes are always...

The Pashtun tribes are always engaged in private or public war. Every man is a warrior, a politician and a theologian Every large house is a real feudal fortress....Eve ry family cultivates its vendetta; every clan, its feud....Nothing is ever forgotten and very few debts are left unpaid.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

In battles two things are usually required of the Commander-in-Chief: to make a good plan for his army and, secondly, to keep a strong reserve.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

Un pesimista ve la dificultad...

Un pesimista ve la dificultad en cada oportunidad; un optimista ve una oportunidad en cada dificultad

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

There is a hush over all Euro...

There is a hush over all Europe, nay, over all the world. Alas! it is the hush of suspense, and in many lands it is the hush of fear. Listen! No, listen carefully, I think I hear somethingyes, there it was quite clear. Dont you hear it? It is the tramp of armies crunching the gravel of the paradegrounds, splashing through rain-soaked fields, the tramp of two million German soldiers and more than a million Italiansgoing on maneuversyes, only on maneuvers!

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

Delight in smooth sounding pl...

Delight in smooth sounding platitudes, refusal to face unpleasant facts ... genuine love of peace and pathetic belief that love can be its sole foundation ... the utter devotion of the Liberals to sentiment apart from reality ...though free from wickedness or evil design, played a definite part in the unleashing upon the world of horrors and miseries [WWII]

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

The essence and foundation of...

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 1582 quotes

Beware of driving men to desp...

Beware of driving men to desperation. Even a cornered rat is dangerous.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

The oldest habit in the world...

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 1582 quotes

Unless we establish some form...

Unless we establish some form of world government, it will not be possible for us to avert a World War III in the future.
