If we can stand up to him,
all Europe may be free
and the life of the world may move forward
into broad, sunlit uplands.
But if we fail,
then the whole world, including the United States,
including all that we have known and cared for,
will sink into the abyss
of a new Dark Age
made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted,
by the lights of perverted science.
Winston Churchill
