Winston Churchill
The worst mistake that a statesman can make is to promise victory and to see it dashed, the hopes dashed.
Winston Churchill
Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour.'
