“So you thought you caught us, you damn Poles. Do you think there is a single thing in this world that will frighten a Cossack? Just wait, the time will come when you will understand the meaning of the Russian Orthodox faith. Word has already spread through every nation. A Russian Czar will spring forth from the Russian earth, and there will be no power in this world that shall not yield to him!”
Nikolai Gogol, “Tarus Bulba”, 1835.
