Moscow... how many strains are fusing
in that one sound, for Russian hearts!
what store of riches it imparts!
Pushkin quotes
"I have come to you against my wish," she said in a firm voice: "but I have been ordered to grant your request. Three, seven, ace, will win for you if played in succession, but only on these conditions: that you do not play more than one card in twenty-four hours, and that you never play again during the rest of your life. I forgive you my death, on condition that you marry my companion, Lizaveta Ivanovna."
Pushkin
Ecstasy is a glassful of tea and a piece of sugar in the mouth.




Ah! heavy art thou, crown of Monomakh!
