More quotes by Alexander Pushkin
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
Habit is Heaven's own redress: it takes the place of happiness.
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
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
Sad that our finest aspiration, Our freshest dreams and meditations, In swift succession should decay, Like Autumn leaves that rot away.
Alexander Pushkin
Unrequited love is not an affront to man but raises him.
Alexander Pushkin
To love all ages yield surrender But to the young it's raptures bring A blessing bountiful and tender- As storms refresh the fields of spring.
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
A deception that elevates us is dearer than a host of low truths.
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
If you but knew the flames that burn in me which I attempt to beat down with my reason.
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
Thank you, darling, for learning to play chess. It is an absolute necessity for any well organized family. (in a letter to his wife)
Alexander Pushkin
Thus people--so it seems to me-- Become good friends from sheer ennui.
Alexander Pushkin
In this, our age of infamy Man's choice is but to be A tyrant, traitor, prisoner: No other choice has he.
Alexander Pushkin
A man who's active and incisive can yet keep nail-care much in mind: why fight what's known to be decisive? Custom is despot of mankind.
Alexander Pushkin
I am married and happy. My only wish is that nothing will change.
Alexander Pushkin
Cabbage soup and barley. They're Russia's national food. Both excellent in their way, but a shade monotonous.
Alexander Pushkin
My dreams, my dreams! What has become of their sweetness? What indeed has become of my youth?
Alexander Pushkin
Moscow... how many strains are fusing in that one sound, for Russian hearts! What store of riches it imparts!
Alexander Pushkin
