About passion, about ideals – and then about affectionate names, about shame, about deep feelings – and about what does not help from love. We have chosen 13 quotes about love from Russian literature – classical and modern. Love in Russian-how it is?

Evgenia Pishchikova about the love dictionary:

“For the“ little man, ”you must immediately kill;“Man”, “Story” and “Kisa”-terrible words, “voodoo-names”, who in a second are divided by the one who was so called, immediately leave a living, individual person to some kind of black fraternal hole, where there is nothing of their own, not a single personal details-no hill, no snow, nor a dead toad, nor childhood, nor childhood, nor the first adulthoodlinen, not even the first mobile phone and the first selfie in the fitting room ".

Nikolai Karamzin about what is dangerous for love:

“Who knows his heart, who was thinking about the property of his most tender pleasures, he, of course, will agree with me that the fulfillment of all desires is the most dangerous temptation of love”.

Andrey Navrozov about what passion is being held on:

"Any passion … on inequality and holds on, inequality is fed and attached".

Alexander Bestuzhev-Marlinsky about the wisdom of love:

“Let anyone want to say that love is madness-in my opinion, a spark of high wisdom lurks in it. In it, we experience in feeling what the philosophy of conviction later leads us to. What noble trust, with what pure kindness we are then crowded: in each person we find a friend, in a sweet flower, in a quiet shrub – a native;We consider people and believe ourselves the best, and it would definitely be so if it would be a tenderness that creates a new world near us and decorating the old one, it was stronger, more constant. The only difference is that philosophy plunders a person from a common life and, as a winner, exalts over nature;And love, defeating his private freedom, merges him with the nature, which he, animating, exalts to himself. ".

Alexander Herzen about the minutes of complete sympathy:

“These are the holy tadasiva online moments of mental waste, when a person is not stingy, when he gives everything and is surprised at his wealth and fullness of love. But these minutes are very rare;For the most part, we do not know how to evaluate them in the present, nor cherish them, even let them through them through our fingers, kill all sorts of rubbish, and they pass a person, leaving behind a painful praise of the heart and a stupid memory of something that could be good, but there was no one. I must admit. A person very stupidly built his life: nine tenths of it spends in a nonsense and little things, and he does not know how to use the last share. ".

Maria Golovanivskaya about the geometry of the Russian soul:

"Life and feelings in the Russian world are orthonary: life dies in feelings, and feelings in life".

Maria Golovanivskaya about shame in love:

“Children who have not yet known passions have firmly learned the vocabulary of suffering and irrationality from school reader in literature. They realized that love is explained in love, admitted, having previously become tormented, and not busily informed. They are explained – because everything is incomprehensible in it, but admitted – because shame, shame, sin and crime are hidden behind it.

Why is it embarrassing is a question, and it is difficult to explain to children, but we understand: it is scary to admit, painful and ashamed to admit in love precisely because the feeling of love is captured, realizes himself with a self -impedation, subhuman, cripple, without the other, he needs half before the whole. He is the floor, his gender (also called in Russian with shame and shame). The Russian word "gender" came from the word "half". Paul is just a line of separation, what reminds of this. The word SEX, akin to the word “secondary” or “sector”, is exactly the same about the same thing. Sex in a person is the place where he was cut off and through which he can gain integrity. Speaking of their love, people expose their gender in the broad sense of the word, even the heroes of Russian classics, completely incorporeal, and they are terribly ashamed of their confessions, as they would be ashamed of their own nudity.

Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin about ideals:

“Truth, goodness, beauty – this is the triad, which can overfill the existence of a person to the regions and possessing which he has the full reason to consider himself secured from all kinds of life’s hardships. Serving these ideals gives him a refuge in which he will hide from hypocrisy, anger and ugliness, reigning the surrounding area. For this, the ideals are given to chosen natures so that the yoke of life does not touch them. What is a life deprived of ideals? This is a set of corrupting little things, and only ".

Alexander Ilichevsky about romanticism:

“Note that psychologically, most likely, romanticism is born when rejecting or slowing down the achievement of an object of desire. The area of ​​dreams and other abstract reasoning caused by a deferred or detached connection is immersed in a barren field of meanings, born of a puzzle producing a phantom. From here the images of the beautiful lady, Sofia, Lilith and other power symbols of femininity are taken – of different moral orientation, but born of one common category: the rejection of the one who is doomed to worship ".

Alexander Ilichevsky about what does not help from love:

“Once in his youth, a comforting formula arose in our boyish company:“ Baba did not give a dude, but he got into a madhouse ”. We used it as a mantra, properly healing the misfortune of youthful love – the type that destroyed Mitya from the Bunin “Mitina Love”. This formula was effective no more than aspirin with scabies. “But it’s better than nothing,” as one day my friend’s friend was comforted by the Yalta prostitute, who opened the simple secrets of bodily poverty to him ”.

Alexander Ilichevsky about the arms:

“What happens with the first hug of alleged lovers? That’s right: both he and she hear the smell of each other – the smell of breathing, the smell of the body. After a hug, they cease to speak human language and begin to speak the language of physiology – pheromones or anything, but only this language is not human ”.

Leo Tolstoy about a real feeling:

“Prince Andrei held her hand, looked into her eyes and did not find the former love for her in his soul. Something suddenly turned in his soul: there was no former poetic and mysterious charms of desire, but there was a pity for her female and childish weakness, there was fear of her devotion and trusting, a heavy and together the joyful consciousness of the duty, forever connected him with her. A real feeling, although it was not as light and poetic as before, was more serious and stronger. ".

Leo Tolstoy about the love of human and divine:

“Yes, love (he thought again with perfect clarity), but not the love that loves for something, for something or for some reason, but the love that I experienced for the first time, when, dying, I saw my enemy and still loved him. I experienced the feeling of love that is the very essence of the soul and for which there is no need for an object. I now feel this blissful feeling. Love neighbors, love your enemies. To love everything – to love God in all manifestations. You can love a person dearly with human love;But only the enemy can be loved by love. And from this I experienced such a joy when I felt that I love that person. What’s wrong with him? Is he alive … loving human love, you can go from love to hatred;But divine love cannot change. Nothing, no death, nothing can destroy it. It is the essence of the soul ".
