What he said about:

“We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strengths 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 in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender! And if, which i do not for a moment believe, this island or large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British fleet, would carry on the struggle. 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!"

Victory!

Only the courage to move forward lasts forever!

Darkest Hour quotes

  • Winston Churchill: D'you know, I've never ridden a bus? I've never queued for bread. I believe I can boil an egg... but only because I've seen it done. The only time I tried riding the Underground was during the General Strike. Clemmie dropped me off at South Kensington station. I went down but got lost. I came straight back up! It was awful.

  • [having accepted the post of Prime Minister, Churchill must now have regular meetings with the King]

    Sir Anthony Eden: You only have to meet him once a week.

    Winston Churchill: But that's like saying you only have to have your tooth pulled once a week.
