    a proverb...

    this is a header in an article, i was wondering: is it a play on some proverb or phrase? if so, what's the original?
    thanks!

    Не откладывай на завтра того, с кем можешь переспать сегодня

    The phrase itself is ironic, by the way. It's from the song of evil characters - Barmaley and pirates, who view themselves as heroes.
