Famous quotes containing the words russian and/or reversal:
“An enormously vast field lies between “God exists” and “there is no God.” The truly wise man traverses it with great difficulty. A Russian knows one or the other of these two extremes, but is not interested in the middle ground. He usually knows nothing, or very little.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“Perversity depends on reversal and substitution.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
