Churchill's Collected Works

Limited Centenary Edition, 1/3000 sets

 


"In the course of my life I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess that I have always found it a wholesome diet." 

Sir Winston S. Churchill


 

"We shall not fly or fail. 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 in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender."

 

"Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duty, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Commonwealth and its Empire lasts for a thousand years, men will still say, “This was their finest hour”."

 "Death and sorrow will be the companion of our journey; hardship our garment; constancy and valour our only shield. We must be united, we must be undaunted, we must be inflexible."
