On May 10, 1940, Winston Churchill became British Prime Minister. On May 13, he presented his angle on acquiring victory “at all costs”, and some contend that this “Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat speech is what made his career. This speech was given by Churchill on his entrance into the House of Commons with the presence of the outgoing prime minister. There has been controversy surrounding his intense speech regarding the multiple ultra-nationalistic statements he makes, however in this quote, he poses the effective idea that victory must be attained at all costs, even in spite of “terror”, and it is apparent that his intentions regarding his speech are to let the people of Great Britain know that he is dedicated to serving his country and…

As we discussed in class, Winston Churchill has made many pivotal decisions that have resulted in failure. In January of 1915, he sent over 100 ships to set sail for one of the largest invasions, but it failed miserably. It resulted in the deaths of 56,000 allied troops and nearly 200,000 were either missing or injured. Churchill was ordered to resign but after a long break he returns to the government, stronger than ever. He never lost his enthusiasm even when he was asked to leave, and because of that he became even more successful. To go along with the historical significance of this quote, there is also an appreciable personal significance. This quote can be applied to anyone's life. It shows how everyone should persevere and never give up. Also that everyone should try their hardest and never lose faith, just as Churchill…

After World War II in 1945, the Labour Party got elected and as leader, Clement Attlee (1945-55) was voted Prime Minister.

This led to the public voting for Attlee, a more peaceful person for a more peaceful time. However, this inevitably led everyone to judge his ability as leader and how effective he was at running a country in a post world war climate.…
He achieved this through his utilization of logos and pathos. When Chamberlain said “If out of the struggle we again re-establish in the world the rules of good faith and the renunciation of force, why then even the sacrifices that will be entailed upon us will find their fullest justification”, he gives good moral reasons why the British must enter the conflict against the Nazi’s. He describes the Nazi’s again by using logos and pathos, saying, “As long as that Government exists and pursues the methods it has so persistently followed during the last two years, there will be no peace in Europe. We shall merely pass from one crisis to another, and see one country after another attacked by methods which have now become familiar to us in their sickening technique”. He explains that the effect of letting the German people do as they please is that Europe will be plunged into years of struggle, with violence and plagues of death being the toll. Chamberlain needed the emotional support of his citizens. He used pathos in this address to win their trust. He gains his audience back by using pathos and reminding them of grim times, such as World War One, it is still fresh in nearly every ones minds. Chamberlain says, “The thoughts of many of us must at this moment inevitably be turning back to 1914, and to a…

Furthermore, when discussing natural rights identifying the diversity and the advantage that comes from different outcomes of equality in an almost completely unbiased environment. As for moral principles, one being, everyone should work, play, and stay in an environment free of derogatory statements and racial slurs or insults. Likewise, another is to treat people nicely like the way one wants treatment. Lastly, we are all created equally yet just at different measure for each other.

In the article, “Some Moral Minima,” Lenn E. Goodman raises the question, “if it is true that no norm can be made absolute unless some other is compromised, are there no rules that tell us that principles are principles – no norms delineating concretely, and uncompromisingly, wrong from right?” (Goodman, 2010) Goodman goes on to state that the areas singled out in this article are not comprehensive of every consideration to which humans are due; he asserts that these are just some of the practices that should never be considered as options.…
