Churchill's Wisdom

"I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else."

"Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities... because it is the quality which guarantees all others."

"An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last."

"Some regard private enterprise as if it were a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look upon it as a cow that they can milk. Only a handful see it for what it really is - the strong horse that pulls the whole cart."

"Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival."

"One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!"
