Russian Roulette Scenes

Famous quotes containing the words russian and/or scenes:

    ...I never drink wine ... I keep my hands soft and supple ... I sleep in a soft bed and never over-tire my body. It is because when my hour strikes I must be a perfect instrument. My eyes must be steady, my brain clear, my nerves calm, my aim true. I must be prepared to do my work, successfully if God wills. But if I perish, I perish.
    Lisa, Russian terrorist (anonymous)

    O scenes of the beautiful world! Never have you presented yourself to more appreciative eyes.
