Winston Churchill was not considered as one of the all time most influential speakers, but the most influential speaker. Few knew that as a youngster, the man whose soaring oratory would mean so much to so many suffered from a stammer, a speech disorder that is notoriously difficult to overcome. But the strains of war showed even on the man called Britain's Bulldog. He suffered a mild heart attack in December 1941, two years later, he contracted pneumonia.
Once Churchill was speaking in Parliament and was slightly muddled and incoherent in his speech. A rather unattractive lady MP on the opposite benches declared to Churchill: 'Sir, you are drunk!'. To which he replied 'Madame that may be true, but in the morning I shall be sober whereas you will still be ugly'.
His war time speech: "We Shall Fight on the Beaches", is one of his most inspiring speeaches
好看的电影,女王亲自解说,还带字幕,她的英语标准,不带俚语,字字清晰。

The story of Queen Elizabeth II in her own words, featuring never-before-seen home movies.
说真实功底,看看他的二战回忆录? 6 大卷的 The Second World War。
要说俗语,就他二战时在加拿大议会演讲时的 2 句话、总共 4 个字,那效果绝对是杠杠的:
他提到敦刻尔克大撤退时法军将领劝法国总统、总理投降,说英国人的抵抗毫无意义: 'In three weeks England will have her neck wrung like a chicken.’
Some chicken!
Some neck!
在加拿大议员们的爆笑中,多少个加拿大师又被派去了反法西斯战场、同时去救了英国的命!
他患有speech disorder
