Winston Churchill

Energetic and daring, contemporaries claim Chruchill believed himself to be “a man of destiny”, fated to do great things. It was this conviction, perhaps, that allowed him to stand up to Hitler’s Germany with such determination, make the seemingly irreconcilable USA and USSR put their differences aside, and see the war through until the very end. “You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be”.
