Original Note:
The quote did not come from Churchill. This saying probably evolved over time, earliest exact source for the saying comes from an 1930s Budweiser beer advert. It was not connected to Churchill till the 1960s. https://winstonchurchill.org/resources/quotes/quotes-falsely-attributed/ https://winstonchurchill.org/publications/finest-hour/finest-hour-136/media-matters/ https://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/09/03/success-final/ https://richardlangworth.com/success https://checkyourfact.com/2019/12/10/fact-check-churchill-success-final-failure-fatal-courage-counts/
