(Srila Prabhupada on the Bowery, 1966)
"Good things do not come so easily; you know the difficulties that I encountered in my first year in your country. Sometimes I did not even know where I was to live, neither when I came did I have any friends. But I was always determined that somehow I would do everything possible to fulfill the desire of my Guru Maharaja, and despite all difficulties I always remained enthusiastic."
(Srila Prabhupada Letter, January 5, 1972)
