quotes from my russia lecture today:

"revolutionary fight songs... quite appropriate to a time of revolutionary fighting."

"anything that could make 'war and peace' smaller is probably a good thing."

"decadent bourgeois trash."

"boots are more important than pushkin."

"when i read pushkin i forget all about my hemorrhoids."

"just like madison ave, but for communists."

thanks, eliot borenstein, for your great insight into russia.
