| WINSTON CHURCHILL |
| �A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject.�
�A joke is a very serious thing.� �An aphorism is not an aphorism unless you know what it means.� �An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.� �Democracy is the worst system devised by the wit of man, except for all the others.� �Kites rise highest against the wind--not with it.� �I always avoid prophesying beforehand, because it is much better policy to prophesy after the event has already taken place.� �I cannot pretend to feel impartial about colors. I rejoice with the brilliant ones and am genuinely sorry for the poor browns.� �I have always considered that the substitution of the internal combustion engine for the horse marked a very gloomy milestone in the progress of mankind.� �I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.� �If you�re going through hell, keep going.� �It is a good thing for the uneducated man to read books of quotations� The quotations, when engraved upon the memory, give you good thoughts. They also make you anxious to read the authors and look for more.� �It is a socialist idea that making profits is a vice; I consider the real vice is making losses.� �Personally I'm always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.� �Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot, others as a cow to be milked, but few are those who see it as a sturdy horse pulling the wagon.� �Sunshine is my quest.� �Sure I am this, that you have only to endure to conquer. You have only to persevere to save yourselves.� �The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.� |
