Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill, 1874-1965
Winston Churchill presented a unique idea regarding the effects of childhood on an individual's adulthood. He wrote in his "Life of Marlborough," that "famous men are usually the product of an unhappy childhood. The stern compression of circumstances, the twinges of adversity, the spur of slights and taunts in early years, are needed to evoke that ruthless fixity of purpose and tenacious mother-wit without which great actions are seldom accomplished." In 1898 he wrote of Mohammed: "Solitary trees, if they grow at all, grow strong; and a boy deprived of a father's care often develops, if he escapes the perils of youth, an independence and vigour of thought which may restore in after life the heavy loss of early days." These reflections proved true in the case of Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill.
