Quote

Courage: Great Russian word, fit for the songs of our children's children, pure on their tongues, and free.

Russians can give you arms but only the United States can give you a solution.

I'm very inspired by the artfulness and soulfulness of the Russian people.

It feels very good to sing in Russian. It feels so good inside my body.

Although I am losing my Soviet citizenship, I do not cease to be a Russian poet.

If you want to find the source of much of the music of modern day Russia, you will find it in the incredible compositions of that crazed lunatic Berlioz.

I belong to Russian literature, but I am an American citizen, and I think it's the best possible combination.

All we know is that, at times, fighting the Russians, we had to remove the piles of enemy bodies from before our trenches, so as to get a clear field of fire against new waves of assault.

I knew that if the feat was accomplished it must be at a most fearful sacrifice of as brave and gallant soldiers as ever engaged in battle.

Moreover, the accomplishment of Russia's aims has been greatly simplified by the fact that we have heretofore offered the world no practical antidote for the Russian poison.
