The Russian people, sober, are said to be a gentle people.

The Russian people have their own cultural code, their own tradition.

The democratic choice Russian people made in the early 90's is final.

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

From being a patriotic myth, the Russian people have become an awful reality.

I feel very uneasy with a lot of aspects of the Russian life and the Russian people.

Many Russia experts note the deep and sad capacity of the Russian people for suffering.

Russian people are not stupid. They know that the system we are living in is undemocratic.

You can't break Russian people, you know? 'Cos we're made in cold snow. We're very resistant.

I don't hate. I love the Russian people. I love the Belarusan people... I love Ukraine very much.

I think Russian people are learning that democracy is not an alien thing; it's not a western invention.

The Russian people and Russian culture are the linchpin, the glue that binds together this unique civilization.

I started like many young Russian people in the beginning of perestroika when it seemed that everything was possible.

The Russian people get so insanely close to each other as friends. Their lives are interrelated so much on an everyday basis.

A personality like Conor's appeals to the Russian people a lot. He's always ready to go, he knocks people out and he's tough.

People are making judgements about Russian people based on me. This is why I never allow myself any aggression towards my opponent.

The Soviet government sprouted and grew out of the habits, the psychology, and the condition of the Russian people. It fitted them. They understand it.

In school, I was playing old men and women, babies, Russian people, and all sorts of weird parts - a lot of comedy - and that's sort of like home to me.

The Russian people have unilaterally made their choice in direction of democracy in the early '90s. They will not be led astray. Nobody should be having any doubts.

Russian democracy is the power of the Russian people with their own traditions of national self-government, and not the realisation of standards foisted on us from outside.

In the western world, you can go out, take a boat trip to the Caribbean and so forth, and buy good things with your own money. But the Russian people with rubles cannot do that.

All Russian people know who I am. So I use this to the good because, you know, it's really hard to shut my mouth off because... I'm too bright, and I'm too many years visible to everyone.

I mean that at least 80% of the Russian people feel destitute. It's the people who had their past and future taken from them - they don't get paid - many of them face a wall. They have nowhere to go.

We just kind saw the images and knew the cliches, so to have the opportunity to go there and learn something about Russian music and about Russian people and to see things apart from being a tourist.

'Daddy used to be a Georgian,' Stalin's son, Vasily, once said. Actually, the dictator didn't truly become Russian; he remained Georgian culturally. Yet he embraced the imperial mission of the Russian people.

Despite elections and the experience of post-Soviet personal freedoms by the Russian people, the fate of democracy in Russia is perhaps more ambiguous now than at any time since the collapse of the Communist system.

I would be delighted if the United States could have a positive relationship with Russia, and I would be thrilled if the Russian people, who are so capable, had a normal country that they could chart a different future.

I am president of Russian Standard Company, biggest luxury vodka in Russia. My bank, Russian Standard Bank, issues biggest number of credit cards in Russia. I want for Russian people to have their own best vodka, their own best bank, their own best credit card.

The Russians as a people had no point of conflict with the Germans; the conflict came from their respective imperialistic policies. When the Russian people learned that imperialism was historically wrong, they set up a revolution in 1917 and overthrew imperialism at home. They then negotiated for peace separately with Germany.
