excerpt from Never Give In
by Winston Churchill
British prime minister Winston Churchill gave this speech at the Harrow School on October 29, 1941, during World War II.
"But for everyone, surely, what we have gone through in this period-I am addressing myself to the School-surely from this period of ten months
this is the lesson: 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. We stood all alone a
year ago, and to many countries it seemed that our account was closed, we were finished. All this tradition of ours, our songs, our School history, this
part of the history of this country, were gone and finished and liquidated.
"Very different is the mood today. Britain other nations thought, had drawn a sponge across her slate. But instead our country stood in the gap.
There was no finching and no thought of giving in and by whall
seemed almost a miracle to those outside these Islands, though we ourselves never
doubted it, we now find ourselves in a position where I say that we can be sure that we have only to persevere to conquer."
