17 сильные духом

the strong in spirit; stout hearts

Таковы были первые уроки революции. Такова была первая встреча русской интеллигенции лицом к лицу с её идеалами. Это была горькая чаша. Она не миновала никого. Сильные духом выпили её и остались с народом, слабые - или выродились, или погибли. (К. Паустовский, Повесть о жизни) — Such were the first lessons of the Revolution. Such was the first face-to-face confrontation by the Russian intelligentsia with its own ideals. It was a bitter drink, but no one could escape it. The strong in spirit drank it down, and stayed on the people's side; those who were weak either degenerated or perished.
