Nice collection.

I don't think I'd bet the rent that they're all valid Churchill, but we can enjoy the sentiments anyway :-)

"Still, 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 so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival.

There may be a worse case.

You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."

During the mini-filibuster on the Estrada nomination last week, Senator Durban (Illinois) had the gall to compare Senator Byrd's (West Virginia) ramblings to the warnings of Winston Churchill on the floor of Commons about the German menace. Durban had it dead wrong, of course. Byrd was playing the Chamberlain role of fear and appeasement, rather than the Churchill one of truth and commitment.

I resolved on hearing that to make it the heart of mycolumn this week. Your post of Churchill quotes only confirmed the wisdom of that choice. The new column's title is "Buncombe Rides Again, and Again."

Thanks for the great quotes. Saved them off.

I like this one: "Bolshevism is not a policy; it is a disease."

I recall Michael Savage saying something similar, except substitute liberalism for bolshevism.
