Winston Churchill

The price of greatness is responsibility.

It is better to be frightened now than killed hereafter

We must beware of trying to build a society in which nobody counts for anything except a politician or an official, a society where enterprise gains no reward and thrift no privileges.

Responsibility is the price of greatness.

We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills;we shall never surrender.

Socialism is like a dream. Sooner or later you wake up to reality.

Just when the caterpillar thought the world was ending, he turned into a butterfly.

Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to.

All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.

It is much easier to show compassion to animals. They are never wicked.

Cats are smarter than dogs. You can not get eight cats to pull a sled through snow.

Just because an animal is large, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t want kindness; however big Tigger seems to be, remember that he wants as much kindness as Roo.

Are cats lazy? Well, more power to them if they are. Which one of us has not entertained the dream of doing just as he likes, when and how he likes, and as much as he likes?

Don’t ever wrestle with a pig. You’ll both get dirty, but the pig will enjoy it.

Dogs’ lives are too short. Their only fault, really.

By what right has the dog come to be regarded as a noble animal? The more brutal and cruel and unjust you are to him the more your fawning and adoring slave he becomes; whereas, if you shamefully misuse a cat once she will always maintain a dignified reserve toward you afterward-you will never get her full confidence again.

Cat: a pygmy lion who loves mice, hates dogs, and patronizes human beings.

Animals are such agreeable friends – they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.

I’d like to devote about three years to the elimination of the cow. There’s not reason in the world why the chemist can’t discover the cow’s secret of converting vegetation into dairy products. And there’s less reason why the chemist can’t do a better job of it after he learns how.

Don’t tell fish stories where the people know you; but particularly, don’t tell them where they know the fish.

The more I learn about people, the better I like my dog.
