Sugar CandyMark
"We have not journeyed across the centuries, across the oceans, across the mountains, across the prairies, because we are made of sugar candy." -- Churchill Speech, Canadian Parliament, 30 December 1941.
Never Give In
"Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.'' -- Churchill Speech, 29 October 1941, Harrow
We shall fight on the beaches
"We shall fight on the beaches. We shall fight on the landing grounds. We shall fight in the fields, and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender!"
Churchill Speech, about Dunkirk, House of Commons, 4 June 1940.

No appeasement in Churchhill's words.

There certainly wasn't. Churchill was a real leader. He knew what the problem was and he went about solving it. Once and for all!
By the way, you wouldn't have heard Churchill saying that Nazism at its core was a good ideology and that it had been bastardized by Hitler! Just imagine!
This is wonderful! Oh, that we had a Churchillian leader today... But, I guess I can dream on as there is no one of his stature in sight. We have only ignorant hacks who don't know history, don't know human nature, and, in fact don't know much of anything!
Churchill wouldn't have felt comfortable in this PC, multi-culti world. He had no time for Islam; and he was a man who liked his cigars and drink. He was also very outspoken. Having a great sense of humour, on being accused of being drunk, and criticized for it, in the House of Commons by a woman MP, he said something like this: Yes, madame, I am drunk. But the difference between us is this: I'll be sobre in the morning; but you'll still be ugly!
