2:01 "Never give in – never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

This is what a commencement speech should sound like.

"But we must learn to be equally good at what is short and sharp and what is long and tough."

Incredible. The rhythm and flow of the words is extraordinary, creating a sense of pride and conviction that swells up in the listener, even 70 years later. I hate to think what a pig's ear any of today's political leaders would have made of a speech such as this.

The Churchill Centre and Museum and the audio of your clip state that the date is October, not November. Good job on the quality of the audio...

"These are NOT dark days, these are GREAT days." What an amazing man.

Very interesting listen, and quite something how someone managed to capture the recording.
