Quotations to help with it all
I saw this quote which was attributed to Winston Churchill and thought it was appropriate to cover at least the first couple of years in an immigrants chosen country.
"Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm" (Perhaps it could be amended to ' go from frustration to frustration....etc)
I know it's a bit like 'if at first you don't succeed.....'
Anyone got any others?

Winston Churchill quote:
Lady X: Prime Minister, you're drunk.
Churchill: And you, madam, are ugly, but I shall be sober in the morning.
Lady X: If you were my husband, I'd put poison in your tea.
Churchill: Madam, if you were my wife ... I'd drink it.
Lady X: Prime Minister, you're drunk.
Churchill: And you, madam, are ugly, but I shall be sober in the morning.
Lady X: If you were my husband, I'd put poison in your tea.
Churchill: Madam, if you were my wife ... I'd drink it.
Winston Churchill quote:
Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.

He is many things, but not queer. (well apart from the pigs arses photo
