Author of quotes: Vasily Andreyevich Zhukovsky



I don’t understand those philosophers who constantly say: remember death, life is nothing; desires, pleasures - everything is a dream. If death is the cessation of life, then can I forget, can I reject that treasure that was given to me for a short time, once I have lost it, I will lose it forever and will never replace it. If death is only a transition to immortality, then life is the essence of immortality and cannot and should not be forgotten. On the contrary, pay attention to it in order to make it worthy of immortality.

Let dragoe in tears will come to life;
Love, you died; you, joy, sped;
One of the previous anguish I have left.

Crowding all to thee in the temple,
And all kneeling
You bring the incense,
You thundering praise singing;
I'm alone in the corner I stand
As life is full of I,
And sacrifice my secret
I offer you the soul.

The charm of bygone times,
Why rose again are you?
Who woke the memory
And silenced dreams?
Why would a soul to the land, committed,
Where were the days of what is no more?
The desert region is not populated,
Will not See it in years past.

Minute beauty fields
The flower withered, lonely,
Deprived you of the delights of their
Arm fall ill.
Alas! given us the same inheritance,
And the same fate oppresses us:
Your piece of paper flew -
From us the fun flies.

Glory - we have been taught to smoke;
Light - judge of the wicked.

Our nation is composed of individuals unrelated by any common Union, stemming from rigid morals of the debt. Is there any Christianity, any morality, is there any mind in such a cold indifference to the General, or rather, in this barbaric septostomy, that is something in common in good and safe? This General indifference is now as it should, autocracy.

I was in the sea dropped;
With my ring I happiness
The earth was ruined.

As long as your ring,
