• Русские долго запрягают, но быстро ездят.
[rus-ski-ye dol-gа za-pri-ga-yut no by-stra yez-dyat]
The Russians are slow starters but fast riders.
🔻It was Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck who said it first.
🔻However, Bismarck did not come up with the expression himself. He probably relied on the Russian proverb, widely known in the 19th century:
• Нескоро запряг, да скоро приехал.
[ni-sko-ra za-pryak, da sko-ra pri-ye-khal]
It took (him) a long time to harness, but soon he arrived.
🔻This means that it usually takes Russians a long time to gather their strength or thoughts, they put off work until later and don’t get down to business until the last minute. But when they finally start, they do everything very quickly.
🔻This proverb reflects the Russian mentality. The Russian people are not hot-tempered, not excitable, but strong and efficient when necessary.
