What were Sir Winston Churchill’s last words?

Although Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill, KG, OM, CH, TD, DL, FRS, RA (11/30/1874 – 1/24/1965) said all of the answer options, his last words were “I’m bored with it all.” Considering that Mr. Churchill was born into royalty, fought in the British Army, became a Member of Parliament, served twice as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and became a successful writer and orator, the sentiment he expressed moments before his death is fascinating.

The grandson of the seventh Duke of Marlborough and the son of a British politician (father) and an American socialite (mother), Mr. Churchill fought in India, the Sudan, and southern Africa—in the Republic of Transvaal and the Orange Free State against Boer insurgents—before entering politics, representing districts in both England and Scotland. He belonged, at different times, to both the Conservative and Liberal political parties. Mr. Churchill won the 1953 Nobel Prize in Literature, in recognition of the volume of writing he accomplished over the course of his life until that point in time, as well as his oratory, both with a focus on history and biography.

When UK Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain capitulated to Adolf Hitler’s demands prior to the Second World War, Mr. Churchill vehemently opposed that policy and was elected prime minister, in 1940. His brilliant, passionate speeches inspired Britons—as well as many of Britain’s allies—and inspired the Allies to defeat the Axis Powers in Europe.
