So as you go into battle, remember your ancestors and remember your descendants.
When you know even for a moment That it's your time Then you can walk with the power Of a thousand generations
My ancestors were fighters, something I have inherited.
My father was a fighter. My grandfather was a fighter. It's just in my blood.
England, an old and exhausted island, must one day be contented, like other parents, to be strong only in her children.
It's hard for me to talk about a legacy or a mystique. It's my family. The fact that there have been difficulties and hardships, or obstacles, makes us closer.
My mother, who was in the Resistance in the Second World War, passed away at 96, and it was like she was 60. I almost have to apologise for my genes.
I think my ancestors had to be enormously strong emotionally and very courageous.
It is my conviction that your generation is better and stronger than was ours... better in many ways! I have the faith that you young men and young women can meet the world on its own terms and conquer it.
