[DuncanWaring]

"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."

I'd like also to bring to your attention an observation made by Adm. James Stockdale on his 7 1/2 years checked-in at the Hanoi Hilton:

This is a very important lesson. You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be."

Yep...good words. I imagine Admiral Stockdale and Mr. Churchill are having some good philosophical conversations in Heaven.
