“She knows there's no success like failure And that failure's no success at all.” Bob Dylan said that, I think.
Quoting Churchill is often insightful and funny, not that the British historical figure was flawless, but I have the upmost respect for the man nonetheless. Was known to be tipsy all day long and joke around all the time. That’s relatable to me anyway. Buh-bye Ron, better luck next time.

Doesn't make the retort any less witty - and it's absolutely one of the best beer-related quotes of all time. (Hey, there's a thread for that! ) Many Churchill quotes are easier to verify, as he was a historian and published author. He did tend to inflate himself a bit, which means that if the only source for the quote is Churchill himself, then it becomes more questionable.
