“About the lovely Marya? Well, let’s see: she’s untrustworthy, she’s unpredictable, she’s got ice water in her veins, she’s more than half mad, she’s a lot smarter than she lets on, and she’s got absolutely no scruples whatsoever. Frankly, sir, with all due respect… she’s you in a dress.” 

Said by Hogan and Newkirk in Fools Russian by Signy1
