Quotations, ellipses...

We're off into The New Year, with a request for a story file from Jen at Salt, advice on dropping an ellipses from a story title, and a deep think about a quotation.

The quotation is

"You make a living from what you get. You make a life from what you give."

And it was said by Sir Winston Churchill.

Now I'm no rampant anything, politically, other than definitely left of centre, and I couldn't care less who said it. I found the quote, it perfectly sums up the friend to whose memory the book is dedicated.

But mention of Sir W C will not go down well in all quarters, it seems.

So, out it comes.

Sorry Winston.
