- Drohobych was not Russian if we apply the modern understanding of this term. He was Rusyn from Red Ruthenia. He was born in the Kingdom of Poland and taught in Krakow, also in the Kingdom of Poland. At the time when he lived, Russia was known as Grand Duchy of Moscow and did not include present day Ukraine, which, for the most part, was a part of Lithuania.
- The first book in a Slavic language was Missale Romanum Glagolitice in Croatian.

Famous quotes containing the word comments:
“Rather would I have the love songs of romantic ages, rather Don Juan and Madame Venus, rather an elopement by ladder and rope on a moonlight night, followed by the father’s curse, mother’s moans, and the moral comments of neighbors, than correctness and propriety measured by yardsticks.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“My note to you I certainly did not expect to see in print; yet I have not been much shocked by the newspaper comments upon it. Those comments constitute a fair specimen of what has occurred to me through life. I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
