An Englishman In New York

"Persistence is your greatest weapon.

It is in the nature of barriers that they fall.

Do not seek to become like your opponents.

You have the burden and the great joy of being outsiders.

Every day you live is a kind of triumph.

This you should cling onto.

You should make no effort to try and join society.

Stay right where you are.

Give your name and serial number, and wait for society to form itself around you.

Because it most certainly will.

Neither look forward where there is doubt,

nor backward where there is regret.

Look inward and ask not if there is anything outside that you want,

but whether there is anything inside that you have not yet unpacked."
