One of my favourite quotes [and I have collected 
two forms of it; I wonder if it is fake or if 
the russian original is available] is: 
 
  I can't stand this proliferation of paperwork. 
  It's useless to fight the forms.  You've got 
  to kill the people producing them. 
                -- Vladimir Kabaidze, general director  
  of the Ivanovo Machine Building Works (near Moscow) 
  in a speech to the Communist Party Conference

  "We cannot tolerate the proliferation of this 
  paperwork any longer. We must kill the people 
  producing it." Attributed to Vladimir Kabaidze
