I am a sporting man. I always like to give trains and aeroplanes a fair chance of getting away.

I built with my own hands ... a large swimming-pool which was filtered to limpidity and could be heated to supplement our fickle sunshine.

No one can guarantee success in war, but only deserve it.

Unless we establish some form of world government, it will not be possible for us to avert a World War III in the future.

Never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

The man who stands firm in order to protect a sand-castle can never be relied upon; for he has given away his common sense.

With opportunity comes responsibility.
