"There is no such thing as a good tax."
"Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot, others as a cow to be milked, but few are those who see it as a sturdy horse pulling the wagon."
"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries."
"We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle."
"An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last."
"The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is."
"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy."
"You ask, What is our policy? I will say; “It is to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us: to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.” You ask, What is our aim? I can answer with one word: Victory—victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival".

He spoke and wrote in good clear Saxon English, because he was not considered smart enough for the Greats course in Classics and studied English instead.
I do not want to hear a politician talk of "prevailing over an adversary." I want to hear a politician say we will "win" when we "defeat the enemy."
