Winston Churchill Quotes

«Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities... because it is the quality which guarantees all others.»
«The only guide to man is his conscience; the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions. It is very imprudent to walk through life without this shield, because we are so often mocked by the failure of our hopes and the upsetting of our calculations; but with this shield, however the fates may play, we march always in the ranks of honor.»
«The human story does not always unfold like a mathematical calculation on the principle that two and two make four. Sometimes in life they make five or minus three; and sometimes the blackboard topples down in the middle of the sum and leaves the class in disorder and the pedagogue with a black eye.»
«When I am abroad, I always make it a rule to never criticize or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home.»
«There is in the act of preparing, the moment you start caring.»
«We must beware of needless innovations, especially when guided by logic.»
«No two on earth in all things can agree. All have some daring singularity.»
«A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn't happen.»
«Death came very easily to her. She had lived such an innocent and loving life of service to others and held such a simple faith, that she had no fears at all and did not seem to mind very much.»
«If you are going through hell, keep going.»
