Additional quotes by Vladimir Mayakovsky

Love's ship has foundered on the rocks of life.
We're quits: stupid to draw up a list
of mutual sorrows, hurts and pains.

If you wish,
I shall grow irreproachably tender:
not a man, but a cloud in trousers!

Tramp squares with rebellious treading!
Up heads! As proud peaks be seen!
In the second flood we are spreading
Every city on earth will be clean.

No gray hairs streak my soul, no grandfatherly fondness there! I shake the world with the might of my voice, and walk – handsome, twentytwoyearold. - Vladimir Mayakovsky
