Rodzyanko: «The situation is grave. The capital city is in anarchy. … There are occasional shootings on the streets. Regiments open fire at each other. It is necessary to nominate a trustworthy person to compose a new government»

Nicolas II: «This fatty, Rodzyanko, wrote some crap again, I won’t even bother to respond to it»

Wagner told the Telegraph in 2012: “I am a businessman, in that I wear a suit and tie, but actually I see myself as an artist. I think outside the box. I don't follow trends. I follow instincts." [http://www.businessinsider.com/inside-the-crash-of-londons-payment-unicorn-powa-technologies-2016-4»]

Wagner told the BBC in 2016: “It’s the business equivalent of walking across the street and being hit by a car. It’s one of those things that is completely random. (…) Certainly, in this case I can tell you it was just one of those extraordinary things that should never have happened.”
