Anyone who doesn’t regret the passing of the Soviet Union has no heart, Anyone who wants it restored has no brains.

- “Arte Joven”: 1901 a modernist magazine (revistas.um.es)
The magazine Arte Joven, published in 1901, was an exponent of the first modernist movement and its efforts to renew the arts and literature that developed in Spain at the turn of the 19th century to the 20th century. Writers and artists of different ways of thinking and with different aesthetic intentions participated in it, from Picasso to Unamuno, but with a common intention of overcoming the schemes established by the previous realist aesthetics.
- Soviet Union (Wikipedia)
The Soviet Union, officially the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), was a transcontinental country that spanned much of Eurasia from 1922 to 1991. It was a successor state to the Russian Empire that was nominally organized as a federal union of fifteen national republics, the largest and most populous of which was the Russian SFSR; in practice both its government and economy were highly centralized until its final years. As a one-party state governed by the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, it was a flagship communist state.
