You can't control the wind, but you can adjust your sails. - -Yiddish proverb

This proverb must have been the precursor to When life hands you a lemon; make lemonade.

Apparently our government, in charge of public lands, parks and waters, is unable to adjust its sails since no one in the government is teaching sail adjustment in this administration.

However, Nevada, as a state, is trimming its sails and stopped this administration's plan to dump there.

Adjusting one's sails is a gross understatement in some situations like in Greece.
