| Stroke Victim and Prime Minister Winston Churchill |
Not many Americans are that familiar with Winston Churchill who was the Prime Minister of England during World War II from 1940-1945 and then once again from 1951-1955. Churchill led Britain to an allied victory in the Second World War. He was an accomplished Statesman, army officer and writer.
In 1941 he helped inspire British resistance to Adolph Hitler and continued to lead Britain in the war against Nazi Germany with the Allied forces. In the beginning he was one of the only leaders who realized the dangers and rallied Britain and its allies to resist.
Churchill suffered from a serious stroke in 1953 and retired as prime minister in 1955. He was named the Greatest Briton of all time in a 2002 Poll. He died in 1965.
Some quotes he was famous for still have credence in today’s world. They include:
You have enemies? Good. That means you stood up for something, sometime in your life.
Continuous effort, not strength or intelligence is the key to unlocking our potential.
All great things are simple and many can be expressed in single words: FREEDOM; JUSTICE, HONOR, DUTY, MERCY AND HOPE.
I am easily satisfied with the very best!
Lastly.......
Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of terror. Victory however long and hard the road may be. For without victory, there is no survival.
Never give in; never give in; never, never, never, never in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions and good sense.
Prime Minister Churchill suffered from a stroke in 1953, and although not the perfect statesman, had the right ideas about how to go about living ones life.
We could all benefit from the wisdom of Mr. Churchill.
