More quotes by Alexander Pushkin
My whole life has been pledged to this meeting with you.
Alexander Pushkin
Unrequited love is not an affront to man but raises him.
Alexander Pushkin
I loved you: and, it may be, from my soul The former love has never gone away, But let it not recall to you my dole I wish not sadden you in any way. I loved you silently, without hope, fully, In diffidence, in jealousy, in pain I loved you so tenderly and truly, As let you else be loved by any man.
Alexander Pushkin
Fearing no insult, asking for no crown, receive with indifference both flattery and slander, and do not argue with a fool.
Alexander Pushkin
It is better to have dreamed a thousand dreams that never were than never to have dreamed at all.
Alexander Pushkin
I do not like Moscow life. You live here not as you want to live, but as old women want you to.
Alexander Pushkin
Don't be sad, don't be angry, if life deceives you! Submit to your grief - your time for joy will come, believe me.
Alexander Pushkin
I want to understand you, I study your obscure language.
Alexander Pushkin
Write for pleasure and publish for money.
Alexander Pushkin
Mistress-like, its brilliance vain, highly capricious and inane.
Alexander Pushkin
I’ve lived to bury my desires, And see my dreams corrode with rust Now all that’s left are fruitless fires That burn my empty heart to dust.
Alexander Pushkin
It's a lucky man, a very lucky man, who is committed to what he believes, who has stifled intellectual detachment and can relax in the luxury of his emotions - like a tipsy traveller resting for the night at wayside inn.
Alexander Pushkin
Sad that our finest aspiration, Our freshest dreams and meditations, In swift succession should decay, Like Autumn leaves that rot away.
Alexander Pushkin
The less we show our love to a woman, Or please her less, and neglect our duty, The more we trap and ruin her surely, In the flattering toils of philandery.
Alexander Pushkin
Please, never despise the translator. He's the mailman of human civilization.
Alexander Pushkin
I was not born to amuse the Tsars.
Alexander Pushkin
If you but knew the flames that burn in me which I attempt to beat down with my reason.
Alexander Pushkin
As long as there is one heart on Earth where I still live, my memory will not die.
Alexander Pushkin
Try to be forgotten. Go live in the country. Stay in mourning for two years, then remarry, but choose somebody decent.
Alexander Pushkin
Ballet is a dance executed by the human soul.
Alexander Pushkin
