Never Give In Except to Convictions of Honour and Good Sense


Convictions of Honour and Good Sense — Churchill


{link » America as the Last Man Standing}
This is not the first time our civilization is under threat. We have seen dangers before. We have been betrayed by our elites before. They have sided with our enemies before. And yet, then, freedom prevailed.

These are not times in which to take lessons from appeasement, capitulation, giving away, giving up or giving in. These are not times in which to draw lessons from Mr. Chamberlain. These are times calling us to draw lessons from Mr. Churchill and the words he spoke in 1942:

“Never give in, never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
Be steadfast in your convictions. Do not capitulate to idolatry du jour.

Honor and good sense can only be lost. What you must fight for is Liberty.
