I
sometimes marvel at the extra-ordinary docility with which Americans
submit to speeches.
Winston Churchill |
If
you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle
or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come
back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous
whack.

Haven't
you heard yet that I put something more than whiskey into my
speeches?
Winston Churchill |
Don't
be nervous. Do just as I do. Whenever I get up to speak, I always
make a point of taking a good look around the audience. Then
I say to myself, 'What a lot of silly fools.' And then I always
feel better.
Winston Churchill |
It
is no use saying, "We are doing our best." You have
got to succeed in doing what is necessary.
Winston Churchill |
There
is no such thing as a good tax.
Winston Churchill |
Curse
ruthless time! Curse our mortality. How cruelly short is the
allotted span for all we must cram into it.
Winston Churchill |
This
is no time for ease and comfort. It is the time to dare and
endure.
Winston Churchill |
Without
tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without
innovation, it is a corpse.
Winston Churchill |
A
love for tradition has never weakened a nation, indeed it has
strengthened nations in their hour of peril.
