    Given the horrible events today ( and I hope no-one thinks this in bad taste ) but I like to think
    It sums up the British spirit.

    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield
