More quotes by Alexander Pushkin
My whole life has been pledged to this meeting with you.
Alexander Pushkin
I want to understand you, I study your obscure language.
Alexander Pushkin
Play interests me very much, said Hermann: but I am not in the position to sacrifice the necessary in the hope of winning the superfluous.
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
I was not born to amuse the Tsars.
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
It is better to have dreamed a thousand dreams that never were than never to have dreamed at all.
Alexander Pushkin
With womankind, the less we love them, the easier they become to charm.

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
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
Fearing no insult, asking for no crown, receive with indifference both flattery and slander, and do not argue with a fool.
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
Inspiration is needed in geometry, just as much as in poetry.
Alexander Pushkin
Mistress-like, its brilliance vain, highly capricious and inane.
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
If you but knew the flames that burn in me which I attempt to beat down with my reason.
Alexander Pushkin
