Churchill estate creates iPhone app

LONDON, Sept. 17 (UPI) -- The estate of deceased British Prime Minister Winston Churchill said it is bringing the "wit and wisdom" of the leader to Facebook, Twitter and an iPhone app.

Randolph Churchill, the great-grandson of the World War II-era prime minister, said the "Churchillisms: The Official Wit and Wisdom of Winston Churchill" iPhone application, which goes on sale Friday for $1.90, is "the first accurate guide to the best of his sayings. It shows just how relevant his thoughts remain," The Daily Telegraph reported Friday.

"There is not a day when Sir Winston is not quoted in one way or another, whether by presidents, prime ministers, newspapers on the web or by people in their everyday lives," Randolph Churchill said. "This app is also the most superb opportunity to make sure the record is correct."

The estate said Facebook and Twitter profiles are also going live Friday to share Churchill's most famous quotations and speech excerpts.
