70+ Quotes To Help You Keep Calm And Carry On

This year is the 79th birthday of the poignant British wartime poster "Keep Calm and Carry On." The poster was created to lift the spirits of the populace in the event of a German land invasion during World War II. Fortunately, that German land invasion never happened, so the poster was lost until the year 2000, when it became a worldwide meme. To this day, boys and girls are still steeped that quintessentially British culture of calming tea and a stiff upper lip in the face of adversity. May these quotes below also inspire you to persevere during hard times in your life.
