This is no war of chieftains or of princes, of dynasties or national ambition; it is a war of peoples and of causes. There are vast numbers, not only in this Island but in every land, who will render faithful service in this war, but whose names will never be known, whose deeds will never be recorded. This is a War of the Unknown Warriors Winston S. Churchill
About This Quote

No war can be won without the participation of a large number of people. It is the public in general, not a select group of people, that will win this war. If there is any real meaning in the phrase "the Unknown Soldiers," it is that these people are not known by their names or their deeds. Their efforts will be unrecognized and they will be called "unknown."
