Wisdom from the British Bulldog

"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened."
--Winston Churchill

More:
"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."
"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen."

"Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put."
"Eating words has never given me indigestion."
"I'm just preparing my impromptu remarks."
"Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room."
"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm."
"We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out."
"You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life."
