@RonDeSantis This quote is often attributed to Churchill. It “sounds like” something he might have said but according to Richard Langworth, the authority on Churchill quotations, there is no evidence that he did, despite it being widely cited online.

@OrenKessler As a knowledgeable but non-academic reader, I agree that is eminently readable. And a fascinating and relevant story…bravo!

Back in the “Great Republic” (as Churchill called it) after our 38th International Churchill conference in London. My friend Randolph Churchill and the “History Guy” Dan Snow had a splendid conversation with the Terminator (also a Churchill fan.)

@SRMandeles @NLIsrael @SirMartin36 The reference in my NLI article was taken from Martin's book but unfortunately is not footnoted. It's possible a copy is at the Churchill Archives or the Gilbert papers; I will check and let you know it I find it. FYI, my email is [email protected].

@debrajsaunders @Faithika @WSJopinion Congratulations on this, added to past outlets like the Federalist. You are a talented, ambitious writer. But please remember that the memory of the Holocaust should not be used for cheap political points, which your last paragraph shows was your real purpose in writing this.

@TheBushCenter with GWB’s striking new portrait of Winston Churchill!

[The New Criterion @newcriterion]

Winston Churchill, always looking to the future, declared in Painting as a Pastime, “When I get to heaven I mean to spend a considerable portion of my first million years in painting, and so to get to the bottom of the subject.”
