Some more Winston Churchill quotes I liked:

I walk slowly, but I never walk backward.

Don't worry when you are not recognized but strive to be worthy of recognition

You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.

If you think you can you can, if you think you can't you're right!

I believe that people should fight for what they believe and only what they believe.

My Best Friend is a person who will give me a book I have not read.

I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to what light I have.

My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.

I'm a success today because I had a friend who believed in me and I didn't have the heart to let him down.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence

Every one desires to live long, but no one would be old.

The best thing a man can do for his children is love their mother.

And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing.

Character is like a tree and reputation its shadow. The shadow is what we think it is and the tree is the real thing.

The greatest fine art of the future will be the making of a comfortable living from a small piece of land.

Nothing in this world is impossible to a willing heart.

The only way to predict the future is to create it.

THANK YOU
