There are moments when a woman ought to invest emotionally in many different roles, and other moments when she may need to conserve her psychological energies.
    Faye J. Crosby (20th century)

    I cannot forecast to you the action of Russia. It is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.
