Gute Menschen haben immer das Nachsehen, und die Egoisten räumen ab – dieses Denkschema stimmt nicht mehr. Denn gerade mit einer selbstlosen Einstellung kommt man meist besser voran.

In his short biography of Winston Churchill, author Peter Caddick-Adams writes that the recipe for Winston Churchill's success during his wartime premiership of 1940-45 can be found in the First World War. He argues that Britain's survival under Churchill was precisely because the nation, and its leaders, had undergone a "dress rehearsal in 1914-18; conscription, rationing, convoys, air raids, mass production, women's uniformed services, coalitions and war cabinets. It had all happened before."
