Winston Churchill Quotes

kind. You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to
wage war by land, sea and air--war with all our
might and with all the strength God has given
us--and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny
never surpassed in the dark and lamentable
catalogue of human crime. That is our policy." -

ancient Rome upon the side of the ferocious pagan
barbarians...There lies the tragedy of Italian
history and there stands the criminal who has
wrought the deed of folly and of shame." - Prime

the end. We shall fight in France and on the seas
and oceans we shall fight with growing
confidence and growing strength in the air. We
shall defend our island whatever the cost may be
we shall fight on beaches, landing grounds, in
fields, in streets and on the hills. We shall
never surrender and even if, which I do not for
the moment believe, this island or a large part
of it were subjugated and starving, then our
empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the
British Fleet, will carry on the struggle until
in God's good time the New World with all its
power and might, sets forth to the liberation and
rescue of the Old. Prime Minister Winston
Churchill (June 4, 1940) Speech post to the fall

was sealed. As for the Japanese, they would be
ground to powder." - Prime Minister Winston
