Tsvetaeva

Famous quotes containing the word tsvetaeva:

    Better to die, or not to have been born,
    than hear that plaining, piteous convict wail
    about these beautiful dark eyebrowed women.
    It’s soldiers who sing these days. O Lord God.
    —Marina Tsvetaeva (1892–1941)

    A deception that elevates us is dearer than a host of low truths.
