Sir Winston Churchill, the great British politician, is one of the most quoted men in history. Leading the people of Great Britain through World War II's terrifying times and giving them strength to overcome their fiery ordeal gave him a place in history that will not be ignored.
He is quoted as saying: "One ought never to turn ones back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger in half" (Patches of Godlight, Jan Karon, npn).
