| Just a few words |
Over history, great speeches are given and sometimes they are remembered, most of the time not. Some words will be recalled and forever stand tall in history.
According to different sites, some of the greatest orators of our written era are these few men:
Lincoln, Churchill, Ghandi, JFK,
Nelson Mandela,
Martin Luther King Jr., Reagan, and Obama
What speaker about which to write? Which one strikes a chord?
Winston Churchill did something utterly amazing: he saved England with his words.
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...
If we can stand up to him (Hitler), all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands.
...This was their finest hour.
Winston Churchill wrote six books about WW2, and forty-three books in total (which filled seventy-two volumes). When asked about how he would be remembered in history, "History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it."
Incredible man. Incredible words.
