A heightened sense of the observation of nature is one of the chief delights that have come to me through trying to paint.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 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 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

Painting is the same kind of problem as unfolding a long, sustained interlocked argument... It is a proposition commanded by a single unity of conception.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

We were not made by Nature to ...

We were not made by Nature to work, or even to play, from eight o'clock in the morning till midnight. We ought to break our days and our marches into two.

It may be that those whose work is their pleasure are those who most need the means of banishing it at intervals from their minds.

Men will forgive a man anything except bad prose.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

Every day you may make progres...

Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

The era of procrastination, of...

The era of procrastination, of half-measures, of soothing and baffling expedients, of delays is coming to its close. In its place we are entering a period of consequences.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

This is the type of arrant pedantry up with which I will not put.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

Writing a book is an adventure...

Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

There is no doubt that it is around the family and the home that all the greatest virtues, the most dominating virtues of human, are created, strengthened and maintained.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

So long as I am acting from du...

So long as I am acting from duty and conviction, I am indifferent to taunts and jeers. I think they will probably do me more good than harm.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

There is no limit to the ingen...

There is no limit to the ingenuity of man if it is properly and vigorously applied under conditions of peace and justice.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

Science burrows its insulted head in the filth of slaughterous inventions.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

The Dark Ages may return-the S...

The Dark Ages may return-the Stone Age may return on the gleaming wings of Science; and what might now shower immeasureable material blessings upon mankind may even bring about its total destruction. Beware! I say. Time may be short.
Referring to the discovery of atomic energy.

Winston Churchill 03.03.2018 03:03:03 1582 quotes

[Should Britain fail, then the...

[Should Britain fail, then the entire world would] sink into the abyss of a new dark age made more sinister ... by the lights of perverted science.
