A postscript on dobryj and xoro šij

[John Dunn]

As a postscript to the recent discussion on добрый and хороший, perhaps I could draw your attention to an article in Novaja gazeta devoted to Evgenij Evtušenko's 80th birthday:
http://www.novayagazeta.ru/arts/53587.html
In this article there is a sentence in which each of the two adjectives is compared with its antonym:
. . . лучше быть добрым, чем злым, хорошим — чем плохим…

John Dunn.
