There is the solution which I respectfully offer to you in this Address to which I have given the title "The Sinews of Peace."

No idea is so outlandish that it should not be considered with a searching but at the same time a steady eye.

The problems of victory are more agreeable than those of defeat, but they are no less difficult.

Victory is not final. Defeat is not failure. It's all about courage.

I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.

There is no worse mistake in public leadership than to hold out false hopes soon to be swept away. The British people can face peril or misfortune with fortitude and buoyancy, but they bitterly resent being deceived or finding that those responsible for their affairs are themselves dwelling in a fool's paradise.

No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle.
