Über Ehe

„A man who's active and incisive
can yet keep nail-care much in mind:
why fight what's known to be decisive?
custom is despot of mankind.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
Ch. 1, st. 25.

„Two fixed ideas can no more exist together in the moral world than two bodies can occupy one and the same place in the physical world.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
VI.

„Ah! heavy art thou, crown of Monomakh!“

— Aleksandr Pushkin

„Send me, Almighty, I petition,
In porticoes or at a ball
No bonneted academician,
No seminarist in a yellow shawl!
No more than in red lips unsmiling
Can I find anything beguiling
In grammar-perfect Russian speech.
What purist magazines beseech,
A novel breed of belles may heed it,
And bend us (for my life of sin)
To strict grammatic discipline,
Prescribing meter, too, where needed;
But I - what is all this to me?
I like things as they used to be“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
Ch. 3, st. 28. (Translated by Walter Arndt in Eugene Onegin (2009). Penguin.

„"The bread of the stranger is bitter," says Dante, "and his staircase hard to climb." But who can know what the bitterness of dependence is so well as the poor companion of an old lady of quality?“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
II.

„Come purge my soul, Thou Master of my days,
Of vain and empty words, of idle ways,
Of base ambition and the urge to rule;
That hidden serpent that corrupts a fool;
and grant me, Lord, to see my sins alone.
That I not call my brother to atone;
Make chaste my heart and lend me from above
Thy fortitude, humility, and love.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
A Prayer as quoted in Pushkin, Alexander (2009). Selected Lyric Poetry. Northwestern University Press, p. 199.

„Habit is Heaven's own redress:
it takes the place of happiness.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
Ch. 2, st. 31.

„Upon the brink of the wild stream
He stood, and dreamt a mighty dream.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
The Bronze Horseman (1833) trans. Charles Johnston.

„Like some magistrate grown gray in office,
Calmly he contemplates alike the just
And unjust, with indifference he notes
Evil and good, and knows not wrath nor pity.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin

„Moscow... how many strains are fusing
in that one sound, for Russian hearts!
what store of riches it imparts!“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
Ch. 7, st. 36.

„"Ace has won!" cried Hermann, showing his card.
"Your queen has lost," said Chekalinsky, politely.
Hermann started; instead of an ace, there lay before him the queen of spades! He could not believe his eyes, nor could he understand how he had made such a mistake.
At that moment it seemed to him that the queen of spades smiled ironically and winked her eye at him. He was struck by her remarkable resemblance...
"The old Countess!" he exclaimed, seized with terror.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
VI.

„Sad that our finest aspiration
Our freshest dreams and meditations,
In swift succession should decay,
Like Autumn leaves that rot away.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
Ch. 8, st. 11.

„And thus He mused: "From here, indeed
Shall we strike terror in the Swede?
And here a city by our labor
Founded, shall gall our haughty neighbor;
"Here cut" - so Nature gives command -
Your window through on Europe; stand
Firm-footed by the sea, unchanging!“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
The Bronze Horseman (1833).

„But, as it is, this pied collection
begs your indulgence — it's been spun
from threads both sad and humoristic,
themes popular or idealistic,
products of carefree hours, of fun,
of sleeplessness, faint inspirations,
of powers unripe, or on the wane,
of reason's icy intimations,
and records of a heart in pain.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
Dedication.

„Pimen [writing in front of a sacred lamp]:
One more, the final record, and my annals
Are ended, and fulfilled the duty laid
By God on me a sinner. Not in vain
Hath God appointed me for many years
A witness, teaching me the art of letters;
A day will come when some laborious monk
Will bring to light my zealous, nameless toil,
Kindle, as I, his lamp, and from the parchment
Shaking the dust of ages will transcribe
My true narrations.“

— Aleksandr Pushkin
(Variant translation): One more story, just one more, And then my history's completed, All my chronicles written down And my sinner's debt repaid to God. Not for nothing. The Lord appointed me to bear witness For many many years and it was he Taught me the art of creating books. One day, in the far future, some hard-working monk Will find my painstaking, anonymous writings. He'll light his lamp, as I light mine, He'lll shake the dust of centuries from these scrolls. Then he'll copy out, carefully, these true accounts, So the descendants of today's Christians May know the past of their native land Remember their mighty Tsars warmly For their glory and their knidness And our Lord's mercy on their sins and crimes. In my old age I live my life anew. Pushkin, Alexander (2012). Pushkin's Boris Gudunov. Oberon Books.
