Never, Never, Never, Give Up
On October 29, 1941, Winston Churchill delivered the the shortest commencement speech on record to the boys at Harrow School. The speech was as follows:
‘Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never–in nothing, great or small, large or petty–never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.’
It has often been shortened to five words: “Never, never, never, give up.”
