Comments:
Churchill gave a speech at the University of Zurich after World War II. During the speech, delivered on September 19, 1946, Churchill, then leader of the opposition in Britain, described the bleak state of post-war Europe, and stated that his vision was essentially the unification of Europe (similar to that of the United States). He concluded his speech with the sentence that appears on the sign: "Let Europe arise!"
