Cheers AWD... I've just had one of those nasty epileptic fits thanks to that hideously coloured post![]
You know whats funny? You know that reflective kaliedoscopic green colour/effect in the Guiness Book? Well, I have Vertigo and, everytime I look directly at it for more than a second my balance resets and I wake up on teh floor... So, I can NEVER, EVER buy another Guniess Book of World Records until that change their cover[:@]
(how's THAT for "off-topic"?)

We are still masters of our fate. We are still captain of our souls.
That's my favorite one.

+1. Short and to the point. However, I've always liked #1 as well, especially the way he delivered it. And it has meaning too because he meant it and it was deadly serious. The war would have been quite different if the French had someone like this instead of Vichyswish types.

Don't forget that the US has also had some great speakers. Who can forget JFK in Berlin? "Ich bein ein berliner!" which of course reassured the crowd by announcing - "I am a jelly doughnut!"

Doesn't quite mean the same thing to me. I'm British, and Winny is a big hero to m! JFK, not quite a hero to me!

As the son of a Royal Navy mate, I have to admire any soldier who wears bright red and stands upright on the battlefield.
