 | Jamesrog (0) 02/21/2008 | Winston Churchill does not meet standards. He sets them. We do not judge Winston Churchill according to what we believe to be great oratory. Quite to the converse: we judge great oratory according the standards set by winston Churchill. He is easily the political player in the modern era.

 | Drummond (54) 01/09/2006 | A great leader and a good orator. But I think he's on this list because of his one liners, more than his longer speeches. His speeches were good, but not of the quality of others on this list.

 | Flick01 (71) 07/25/2004 | While I could cite numerous speeches he made that would prove his remarkable insight, one of my favorite stories concerns Churchill before he was to get up and speak. While sitting on a platform awaiting his turn the seventy eight year old Churchill was handed a note that read Prime Minister ---- your fly is unbuttoned. Churchill then wrote on the bottom of the note and passed it back. It read Never fear. Dead birds do not drop out of nests.

 | JonTheMan (27) 11/26/2003 | A few quotes from Winston: (after a woman said Mr. Churchill, if I was your husband I would poison your tea) Madam, If I was your husband, I would drink it, (After a woman had called him drunk) Yes and you are ugly, but in the morning, I shall be sober. (After Roosevelt had just seen his towel drop after a shower) See, Mr President. I have nothing to hide.. On the other hand his comments on Clement Atlee aren't very entertaining and niether are these two: poison gas should be used to spread healthy terror, I hope that if this empire should ever fall I can only hope there is a man as great as him (Hitler) to lead us.
