Russia MFA spox quotes classics while commenting on Armenia premier statement

The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, decided to quote the classics at Thursday’s press briefing, answering the question about Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan's statement: "The CSTO is leaving Armenia willingly or unwillingly, and that worries us."
"When I saw these words, let me remind that Nikol Pashinyan had said that there was a fear that the CSTO would leave Armenia, I remembered two quotes from the classics. Do you remember Bulgakov's ‘Who stood on whom? [i.e., Mikhail Bulgakov’s "Heart of a Dog"], and the second one from Stanislavsky: ‘Love art in yourself, and not yourself in art.’ That is why I immediately thought: I will leave this part of the question to your discretion. You try to understand what it is about," said Zakharova.
