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) |
however, that's not our case | однако не в нашем случае (Alex_Odeychuk) |
