“The King of Spain is daily making offers of peace and friendship, but I shall not listen to them, knowing his ambition; on the contrary, I have sent Drake to ravage his coasts and am considering sending the Earl of Leycester to Holland to show that I am not afraid of war.”
- Queen Elizabeth I of England may have died over four hundred years ago, but her spirit lives on in the many writings she left behind. During her long reign (1558–1603), Elizabeth demonstrated brilliant leadership as she dealt with many of the problems politicians still face today. Perhaps the wisdom that can be found in her recorded words may help modern people navigate the treacherous waters of international and domestic politics.
