Two fixed ideas can no more exist together in the moral world than two bodies can occupy one and the same place in the physical world.
Alexander Pushkin
Image
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
Image
As long as there is one heart on Earth where I still live, my memory will not die.
Alexander Pushkin
Image
Love passed, the Muse appeared, the weather of mind got clarity new-found now free, I once more weave together emotion, thought, and magic sound.
Alexander Pushkin
Image
Unrequited love is not an affront to man but raises him.
Alexander Pushkin
Image
I loved you even now I may confess, Some embers of my love their fire retain But do not let it cause you more distress, I do not want to sadden you again. Hopeless and tongue tied, yet I loved you dearly With pangs the jealous and the timid know So tenderly I loved you, so sincerely, I pray God grant another love you so.
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
My dreams, my dreams! What has become of their sweetness? What indeed has become of my youth?
Alexander Pushkin
Image
Ballet is a dance executed by the human soul.
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

Somewhere between obsession and compulsion is impulse.
Alexander Pushkin
Image
Moscow... how many strains are fusing in that one sound, for Russian hearts! What store of riches it imparts!
Alexander Pushkin
Image
Try to be forgotten. Go live in the country. Stay in mourning for two years, then remarry, but choose somebody decent.
Alexander Pushkin
Image
'Tis time, my friend, 'tis time! For rest the heart is aching Days follow days in flight, and every day is taking, Fragments of being, while together you and I, Make plans to live. Look, all is dust, and we shall die.
