More quotes by Alexander Pushkin
I want to understand you, I study your obscure language.
Alexander Pushkin
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
A deception that elevates us is dearer than a host of low truths.
Alexander Pushkin
Please, never despise the translator. He's the mailman of human civilization.
Alexander Pushkin
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

Alexander Pushkin
With womankind, the less we love them, the easier they become to charm.
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
If you but knew the flames that burn in me which I attempt to beat down with my reason.
Alexander Pushkin
Habit is Heaven's own redress: it takes the place of happiness.
Alexander Pushkin
Then came a moment of renaissance, I looked up - you again are there, A fleeting vision, the quintessence Of all that`s beautiful and rare.
Alexander Pushkin
