The Churchill quote was along the lines of if we don’t take care of something while we can while it’s still small, we may have to fight in vain and die against something we don’t have a chance of winning against. WHich scenario is the better one?

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.

There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves. "

- Winston Churchill
