"The Russians love Brooke Shields because her eyebrows remind them of Leonid Brezhnev"

- Robin Williams

About this Quote

This quote by Robin Williams is a humorous reference to the Cold War era. Leonid Brezhnev was the leader of the Soviet Union from 1964 to 1982, and was known for his bushy eyebrows. The joke is that the Russians have a fondness for Brooke Shields because her eyebrows resemble those of Brezhnev. This is a lighthearted way of poking fun at the Cold War rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union. It also implies that the Russians have a certain nostalgia for the Brezhnev era, and that they appreciate the physical similarities between him and Brooke Shields. The quote is a humorous way of highlighting the cultural differences between the two countries, and the way in which they view each other.
