How did he cope with World War 2,? and what he thought of world leaders like Stalin and Roosevelt.

One other quality was perseverance, an example of this is how he inspired soldiers during World War 2 with the quote “If you are going through hell, keep going”. He was an excellent public speaker, an example of this is his “We shall fight on the beaches” speech given to the Houses of Commons on 4th June 1940. Winston Churchill had many good qualities, such as his ability to lead and cooperate with other nations around the world, an example of this includes how he worked with other countries during World War 2 and the Cold War.
