There is only one thing better than Ostap Bender, even better than Cervantes. I have modeled my life on his teachings... kirjasto.sci.fi

...Remember that line "Of course you are free to go , (Ostap to Kisa), Well, <than I would rather go....> But remember we have very long hands....<Than I would rather stay-mumbled back Kisa.... "" Great Lines! ggg It takes what we call in Italian "una mente arguta!" to understand these sotilities! I wonder if Ilf and Petrov did fool Stalin and got by with it!! Ostap was half Jewish,! So could it be that the book officially meant not to be an attach only on the NEP, but also on the Jews? plenty of people involved in the book are Jews. But maybe it was Ilf and Petov that fooled the system. I know your more familair with this than me, so please give me your opinion!
