Favourite Quote of 2008

Well so far anyway;

“Russia is a country of legal nihilism.”

Though this from Stratfor on Hungarian pipelines comes a close second:

“Russia’s wide-open geography means that it has few barriers to invasion. Consequently, Russian history is one of occasional foreign occupation, which has resulted in a culture that mixes xenophobia, bitterness, persecution and a sense of entitlement in equal measure.”

Not sure that I would write that straight out.
