Cabinet War Rooms.
"... on the night of the tenth of May (1940) ... I acquired
the chief power in the State I was conscious of a profound
sense of relief. At last I had the authority to give directions
over the whole scene. I felt as if I were walking with destiny,
and that all my past life had been but a preparation for this
hour and for this trial. Eleven years in the political wilderness
had freed me from ordinary Party antagonisms. ... I thought I
knew a good deal about it all, and I was sure I
should not fail. Therefore, although impatient for the
morning, I slept soundly and had no need for cheering
dreams. Facts are better than dreams."
Extract from "The Gathering Storm" by Winston Churchill
