“Pushkin’s composition is first of all and above all a phenomenon of style, and it is from this flowered rim that I have surveyed its seep of Arcadian country, the serpentine gleam of its imported brooks, the miniature blizzards imprisoned in round crystal, and the many-hued levels of literary parody blending in the melting distance.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

“His valors shown upon our crests today
Have taught us how to cherish such high deeds
Even in the bosom of our adversaries.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
