However much you change positions, my friends, you'll never make musicians | а вы, друзья, как ни садитесь, всё в музыканты не годитесь (Ivan Krylov, The Quartet. Transl. by Peter Tempest. The quotation is used with reference to persons who attribute their failure to some cause outside themselves. VLZ_58) |
there are facts in our lives we can never change | в нашей жизни бывает такое, что мы не в силах изменить (Alex_Odeychuk) |
