Russians are all vodka drinkers.

The Russians as a whole have a lot of contradictions. But it is a widespread mistake to see the Russians as a single whole. We were, we are, and we are more likely to be DIFFERENT. If other people in the world think about the Russians only as mad and drinkers, it is a great pity, but it is not my problem. I also can do nothing if they are unaware of the great Russian culture. To tell the truth, it is not so essential what other people think about the Russians. The most important thing for me is my own viewpoint on the matter: there are both positive and negative traits of the Russian character. I should have this in my mind when trying not only to survive, but to live happily in Russia. As F.Scott Fitzgerald put it ''The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function."

Russians are hard workers who have got a lot to put up with in their country.

i usually think of old white people that are mad all the time..

Nice language.. But i still need time to learn that, especially how to write Russian script..
