From a Great Man!

Sugar Candy

"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
