To My Students
The Last Generation Able to Say They Met an Upstander,
a Partisan, a Survivor
Never give in, never give in, 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.
—Winston Churchill
