"Last Fall after a bad raid, people in London would shrug their shoulders and say complacently, 'We can take it.' All that feeling is gone now. I walked around the streets of London on Sunday morning. The streets were filled with grim-faced, sullen-looking men and women. They wanted to give it. Every bomb that the Nazis dropped during the night carried germs with it - germs of hatred. I could feel the hatred rising from the ruins infecting everyone. Tight-lipped men and women stared at the debris of treasured landmarks and you could feel the hatred of Nazi barbarism emanating from them. This war is too important to be fought by generals - it is being fought by the people. The people will insist on making the peace. The people will not be generous victors."
