A man must choose his own way...

A man must choose his own way of life, and…it is only by following out one’s own bent that there can be the really harmonious life.” [In an interview conducted by Bram Stoker]

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

I now began for the first tim...

I now began for the first time to envy those young cubs at the university who had fine scholars to tell them what was what; professors who had devoted their lives to mastering and focusing ideas in every branch of learning; who were eager to distribute the treasures they had gathered before they were overtaken by the night. But now I pity undergraduates, when I see what frivolous lives many of them lead in the midst of precious fleeting opportunity. After all, a man's Life must be nailed to a cross either of Thought or Action. Without work there is no play.

We must recognise that we have a great inheritance in our possession, which represents the prolonged achievement of the centuries; that there is not one of our simple uncounted rights today for which better men than we are have not died on the scaffold or the battlefield. We have not only a great treasure; we have a great cause. Are we taking every measure within our power to defend that cause?

Death and sorrow will be the ...

Death and sorrow will be the companions of our journey; hardship our garment; constancy and valor our only shield. We must be united, we must be undaunted, we must be inflexible.

Manifest destiny was on the march, and it was unfortunate that Mexico stood in the path.

Let us set up a standard around which the brave and the loyal can rally.

Politics is like waking up in the morning. You never know whose head you'll find on the pillow.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

An American diplomat is sometimes like a bull who carries his own china shop around with him.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

I have had a number of threatening letters each week, some telling me the actual time and method of my death, and I don't like it.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

Hasty work and premature decisions may lead to penalties out of all proportion to the issues immediately involved.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

It happens that once we learn a thing, the motivation to keep it up grows and expands further as well.
If you're going through hell, keep going.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

We are shaping the world fast...

We are shaping the world faster than we can change ourselves, and we are applying to the present the habits of the past.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

In Hitler's launching of the Nazi campaign upon Russia we can already see, after less than six months of fighting, that he made one of the outstanding blunders of history, and the results so far realized constitute an event of cardinal importance in the final decision of the war.

Air power may either end war or end civilization.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

It is easier to give directions than advice, and more agreeable to have the right to act, even in a limited sphere, than the privilege to talk at large.

Winston Churchill 1582 quotes

We are asking the nations of ...

We are asking the nations of Europe between whom rivers of blood have flowed, to forget the feuds of a thousand years and work for the larger harmonies on which the future depends.
