Russian Party of Life

The Russian Party of Life (Российская партия жизни, Rossiyskaya Partiya Zhizni) was a political party in Russia, led by Sergey Mironov (Speaker of the Federation Council, the upper house of the Russian parliament). According to its website, the party was liberal on economic issues and nationalistic on everything else. Its headquarters were located in Moscow.

At the last legislative elections, 7 December 2003, the alliance of the Party of Russia's Rebirth and the Russian Party of Life party won only 1.9% of the popular vote and no seats, despite attracting to its list a number of Russian celebrities, most famously Oxana Fedorova.

The Russian Party of Life merged with Rodina and the Russian Pensioners' Party into a new party, A Just Russia, on 28 October 2006.

Famous quotes containing the words russian, party and/or life:

    Grishkin is nice: her Russian eye
    Is underlined for emphasis;
    Uncorseted, her friendly lust
    Gives promise of pneumatic bliss.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    In all conversation between two persons, tacit reference is made, as to a third party, to a common nature. That third party or common nature is not social; it is impersonal; is God.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Where is the Life we have lost in living?
    Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
    Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
