Quit calculating odds and just do what is right. Because it ain't going to get easier... It is only going to get harder to do so.
-- Winston Churchill"Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."
Hell, Churchill cozied up to Stalin when the need arose. It wasn’t that he didn’t despise Stalin, just that he had more pressing considerations at the time.
