“What is the use of living, if it be not to strive for noble causes…”

July 27, 2012 By Susannah Fox Leave a Comment

“What is the use of living, if it be not to strive for noble causes…”

Statue of Winston Churchill in Washington, DC“…and to make this muddled world a better place for those who will live in it after we are gone?” – Winston Churchill.

I bike past this statue every day on the way to and from work and stopped the other day to read the plaque. One foot is on U.S. soil, the other on the grounds of the British Embassy. Check out his Wikiquote page for more inspiration on the eve of a very British Olympics.
