Top 5 quotes from Winston Churchill

"However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results."
"There is something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty."
"The destiny of man is not measured by material computation. When great forces are on the move in the world, we learn we are spirits--not animals."
"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."
"Never interrupt me when I'm trying to interrupt you."
