Russian Chauvinism

Famous quotes containing the words russian and/or chauvinism:

    “That is almost the whole of Russian literature: the phenomenal coruscations of the souls of quite commonplace people.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “Is it impossible not to wonder why a movement which professes concern for the fate of all women has dealt so unkindly, contemptuously, so destructively, with so significant a portion of its sisterhood. Can it be that those who would reorder society perceive as the greater threat not the chauvinism of men or the pernicious attitudes of our culture, but rather the impulse to mother within women themselves?”
    —Elaine Heffner (20th century)
