When I first heard about the article, I
remembered Churchill. His personality is a legend in history, his name
associates with strength, power and wholly Great Britain. His deeds
became important not only for England but for the whole world. His
outstanding intellect expressed itself in art, engineering, writing, and
now we can hardly say who he was: a politician, a writer, a speaker or a
hero of jokes about England. His ambitious and hard-working nature made
him a great speaker who influenced people’s minds, although he wasn’t a
natural public speaker and was practicing for hours, his political
intuition predicted the German invasion but it couldn’t be use with
benefit.
He
made a choice to fight at all costs inspiring meanwhile his country in
the darkest times during the Second World War with his treatments when
no country supported England in its decision to fight against Nazi
German. And for me it was one of the most important deed he could do for
his country and people. Because the ability to defend your own decision
and be responsible for it – that was and will be real value at all
times. Of course this trait always singled him out sometimes making him
defenseless or not popular, but I think with such an outlook on life you
could say "I did my best”.
He
had never promised dolce vita or easy decisions, but "blood, toil,
tears and sweat” winning his listeners’ trust, awaking their patriotic
feeling and faith in a good times. His speeches have always united the
people, given them a common idea and a guide to action. Nowadays such a
facts are really rare; usual speeches mostly divide people to some
parties, so Churchill’s still the brightest example of a great leader.
P.S. the famous motto "Keep calm and carry on” was created in Churchill’s times too. So maybe he had also a commercial vein?..
