Additional quotes by Alexander Pushkin

Знам, дами недостъпни има,
далеч от страстите, шума,
студени, чисти като зима,
непостижими за ума — такива модни и надменни,
със добродетели вродени.
Признавам, че от тях странях,
че на челата им четях
на ада надписа ужасен:
„Надежда всяка остави“.

The clock of doom had struck as fated;
the poet, without a sound,
let fall his pistol on the ground.

My whole life has been pledged to this meeting with you...
