The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Alexander Pushkin
- It is better to have dreamed a thousand dreams that never were than never to have dreamed at all.
- Don’t be sad, don’t be angry, if life deceives you! Submit to your grief – your time for joy will come, believe me.
- Fearing no insult, asking for no crown, receive with indifference both flattery and slander, and do not argue with a fool.
- 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.
- As long as there is one heart on Earth where I still live, my memory will not die.
- 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.
- My whole life has been pledged to this meeting with you.
- If you but knew the flames that burn in me which I attempt to beat down with my reason.
- 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.
- With womankind, the less we love them, the easier they become to charm.
Alexander Pushkin (1799-1837) was a Russian poet, novelist, and playwright, widely regarded as the father of modern Russian literature. Born in Moscow into a noble family, he showed literary talent from a young age. Pushkin’s early works, such as “Ruslan and Ludmila” (1820), established his reputation.
His most significant works include the novel in verse “Eugene Onegin” (1833), the historical drama “Boris Godunov” (1831), and numerous short stories and poems that captured Russian society’s complexities.
Pushkin’s innovative use of the Russian language and his incorporation of national history and folklore into his works laid the groundwork for future Russian literature. Despite his literary success, Pushkin’s life was marked by political tensions and personal conflicts.
He died tragically at the age of 37 after being wounded in a duel defending his wife’s honor. Pushkin’s legacy endures, influencing countless writers and remaining central to Russian cultural identity.
