Winston Churchill Quotes, Adversity Quotes, Men Quotes

Danger gathers upon our path. We cannot afford - we have no right - to look back. We must look forward...

And I may say, further, that a certain amount of care or pain or trouble is necessary for every man at all times. A ship without ballast is unstable and will not go straight.
