意思
Big tasks take time to complete.
文化背景
The phrase is the emotional core of the 1979 film 'Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears.' It represents the 'self-made' journey of the main character. During the Soviet era, this phrase was used in propaganda to justify the long years of hardship required to build a 'communist utopia.' In the fast-paced world of Moscow's tech scene, this phrase is sometimes used ironically to complain about bureaucracy. Russian parents and teachers use this constantly with children to instill the value of 'usidchivost' (the ability to sit still and work).
Use it for yourself!

Don't change the city
Even if you are in St. Petersburg or London, keep 'Moscow' in the phrase. It's a fixed idiom.
