Keep Calm and Carry On was a motivational poster produced by the British government in 1939 in preparation for the Second World War. The poster was intended to raise the morale of the British public, threatened with widely predicted mass air attacks on major cities. Although 2.45 million copies were printed, and although the Blitz did in fact take place, the poster was hardly ever publicly displayed and was little known until a copy was rediscovered in 2000 at Barter Books, a bookshop in Alnwick. It has since been re-issued by a number of private companies, and has been used as the decorative theme for a range of products.

《保持冷静，继续前进》（Keep Calm and Carry On）是1939年第二次世界大战开始时英国政府制作的宣传海报，原计划应对纳粹占领英国这一情况发生后，用以鼓舞民众的士气。这张海报由于发行量有限，最初并不为人所知。2000年它被人发现并被众多商家印刷发行以作为产品的装饰主题。到2012年为止，已收集到了15份当年印刷的海报。
