   Hey Aherne, you might get a laugh out of this one:   
      
      
      
   "The difficulty in understanding the Russian is that we do not take   
   cognizance of the fact that he is not a European but an Asiatic and   
   therefore thinks deviously. We can no more understand a Russian than a   
   Chinaman or a Japanese and, from what I’ve seen of them, I have no   
   particular desire to understand them except to ascertain how much lead   
   or iron it takes to kill them. In addition to his other amiable   
   characteristics, the Russian has no regard for human life and is an   
   all out son of a bitch, a barbarian, and a chronic drunk."
