Alexander Pushkin
“My whole life has been pledged to this meeting with you...”
Alexander Pushkin, Eugene Onegin

Alexander Pushkin
“Онегин, я тогда моложе,
Я лучше, кажется, была,
И я любила вас; и что же?
Что в сердце вашем я нашла?
Какой ответ? одну суровость.
Не правда ль? Вам была не новость
Смиренной девочки любовь?
И нынче — боже — стынет кровь,
Как только вспомню взгляд холодный
И эту проповедь… Но вас
Я не виню: в тот страшный час
Вы поступили благородно.
Вы были правы предо мной:
Я благодарна всей душой…”
Alexander Pushkin, Eugene Onegin

Alexander Pushkin
“..depression still kept guard on him, and chased after him like a shadow - or like a faithful wife.”
Alexander Pushkin , Eugene Onegin

Alexander Pushkin
“But even friendship like our heroes'
Exist no more; for we've outgrown
All sentiments and deem men zeroes--
Except of course ourselves alone.
We all take on Napoleon's features,
And millions of our fellow creatures
Are nothing more to us than tools...
Since feelings are for freaks and fools.
Eugene, of course, had keen perceptions
And on the whole despised mankind,
Yet wasn't, like so many, blind;
And since each rule permits exceptions,
He did respect a noble few,
And, cold himself, gave warmth its due.”
Alexander Pushkin, Eugene Onegin

Edmund Spenser
“For there is nothing lost, that may be found, if sought.”
Edmund Spenser, The Faerie Queene
