Best Answer

It is from one of the most miss quoted speeches of all time.

The speech made by Winston Churchill in The House of Commons in the British Parliament on 4 June, 1940, went as follows.

we shall fight on the seas and oceans,

we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,

we shall fight on the beaches,

we shall fight on the landing grounds,

we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,

we shall fight in the hills;

we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old."

Note we shall fight not we will fight and the word them does not appear in the original text although it is now almost always included in the quote today
