"Introduction in a Search for Ms. MTCA"

Good evening to each and everyone of you. In front of you is a genuine student of MTCA named _____, young yet intellectually active and physically fit; a gorgeous lady of Medical Transcription course, proud to represent the Green Team!

I am hoping for some awesome suggestion on how to improve this introductory speech. I can't find a quote that will suit the theme (Military). Please help me find a good one. Thanks.

Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

-Winston Churchill

"The characteristic of a genuine heroism is its persistency. All men have wandering impulses, fits and starts of generosity. But when you have resolved to be great, abide by yourself, and do not weakly try to reconcile yourself with the world. The heroic cannot be common, nor the common heroic."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Thanks to both of you. I'll do whatever I can to help with yours. God bless!
