2 2. ‘Great is Russia but there can be no retreat, for behind us lies Moscow.’ A phrase traditionally attributed to a Soviet officer, Vasilii Klochkov, who is thought to have uttered it during fighting by the ‘twenty-eight Panfilov soldiers’ during the 1941–2 battle for Moscow. The source for this is an article by Aleksandr Krivitskii (Krasnaia zvezda, 22 January 1942), and sceptics claim that it was in fact he who coined the phrase. Unlike Hitler, Napoleon did capture Moscow in 1812. [Tr.]

15 15. It is an incorrect argument that we only have experience of our present-day selves, bare but clothed, and have none of ourselves as naked and hairy beings. The experience of having a hairy body is curiously familiar to us if only because when we are born the boundary between the brow and the head hair is blurred. A smooth covering of hair disappears from the brow after birth. A legacy of earlier hairiness is still present in the sense of shame we feel when naked. That shame is so innate and invariably present that Vladimir Solov’ev based a system of ethics on it. [Bibikhin]
