Transport to recall other occasions of the nation's will and high purpose. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and on the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender...until, in God's good time, the new world, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old. The Rt. Hon. WINSTON S. CHURCHILL, P.C., M.P., after the collapse of France, June, 1940 -
