When I was younger I made it a rule never to take strong drink before lunch. It is now my rule never to do so before breakfast.

Churchill jokes about how a drinking rule slid over the years. First it was no strong drink before lunch, and now it's none before breakfast. The humour is in the rule quietly getting looser while sounding just as principled.
