    Winston Churchil has already been well quoted. It says a lot about the man that he said so much stuff worth hearing, including:

    • History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.
    • An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
    • It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.
    • Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
    • He has all of the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire.
    • Mr. Attlee is a very modest man. Indeed he has a lot to be modest about.
    • Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.

    And one final quote; pertinent, but lost on this government:
