Совковая штурмовщина? How about this:
On learning that the Russians had a good chance of being able to get to the Moon by February 1969, NASA's managers decided to advance their own timetable in order to beat them to it. They decided that the Apollo 8 flight, scheduled to stay in low earth orbit like its predecessors, would go instead to the Moon.

Пусть будет, как будет,
ведь как-нибудь да будет,
никогда так не было,
чтобы никак не было.

Impredicative: Definitions about a set which depend on the entire set.

Если жизнь протекает хорошо,
значит, она дала трещину.

В действительности все совсем не так, как на самом деле.
