Printed Pushkin and his dashing life

Many people take it out against me
And now, perhaps, they will ask:
Silly so why joke?
What's the matter with them? Want.
-Pushkin

Famous Russian writer Ivan Dmitriev once visited the house of Pushkin's parents when the latter was still a child.
Ridiculously over the original type of boy's face and his curly hair, Dmitriev said:
"What a hag!"
In response to this, the ten-year-old grandson of Hannibal suddenly cut off:
- Yes, but not hazel grouse!
One can imagine the surprise and embarrassment of those present who realized that Pushkin's boy was making fun of Dmitriyev's face, disfigured by rowan.

In the famous lyceum, Pushkin, it turns out, acted according to the blat.
The lyceum was founded by Minister Speransky himself, the set was not large - only 30 people, but Pushkin had an uncle - a very famous and talented poet Vasily Lvovich Pushkin, who was personally acquainted with Speransky. I do not know how my uncle felt afterwards, but on the list of successful pupils who were prepared for the graduation party, Pushkin was second from the end.



"Where are you now serving?"
One lyceum student soon after graduating from the Imperial Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum, in 1929. I met Pushkin on Nevsky Prospekt. The poet, having seen on it a lyceum uniform, approached and asked:
Are you probably just released from the Lyceum?
-Yes, just released with the secondment to the Guards, - the lyceum student answered and in turn asked: - Were you raised in our lycee, too?
-Yes.
"May I ask you where you are now serving?"
"I'm numbered in Russia," answered Pushkin.




Alexander Sergeevich during his stay in the Tsarskoe Selo Lyceum decided to flee to Petersburg for a walk. Goes to the tutor Tricot, he does not start up, stating that he will watch him.
Pushkin waved his hand at this statement and, taking Kukhelbecker, escapes to Peter. Tricot followed. Alexander Sergeyevich comes first to the outpost.
"Surname?"
"Alexander, however!" Answers the poet. Zastavny writes down the name and lets the person go. Behind Pushkin drives Kiichelbecker.
"Surname?" He asked again.
"Grigory Dwako!" Answers Comrade Pushkin, who invented this ingenious combination.
Zastavny writes and doubts his head. Finally, the tutor arrives.
"Your name?" His guard asked.
- Tricot.
"Well, you're lying." The patient's patience is losing patience. "There's something unkind here!" One by one - One, Two, Three! Shawl, brother, go to the guard!
Poor Trikot spent the whole day under arrest at the outpost, and Pushkin freely pokatil with his friend.



As a junker, Pushkin very often visited high-ranking people, who at that blissful time for any outstanding talent, both literary and artistic, still continued to look as though they were clownish and tried to extract from such talent as possible for themselves amusing . Pushkin was squeamish about such a relationship with himself and fiercely protested against them with accurate, sarcastic impromptu impromptu.
Appearing once to a high-ranking person, Pushkin found him lying on the couch and yawning with boredom. When the poet entered the person, of course, and did not think to change the posture, and when Pushkin, having transferred what was needed, wanted to retire, he was ordered to pronounce an impromptu.
"The children on the floor are smart on the couch," Pushkin said irritably through his teeth.
"Well, what's so witty about here," objected the person, "de-ty to the clever man on the couch." I can not understand ... I expected more from you.
Pushkin was silent, and when the person, repeating the phrase and moving the syllables, finally reached such a result: the half-witted fellow on the sofa, then, of course, immediately and indignantly dismissed Pushkin.




Once Pushkin was very out of sorts. He had a strong need for money, and was not foreseen to receive them soon. In these unpleasant moments is some German shoemaker and energetically demands a meeting with Pushkin. The disgruntled poet comes out and sharply asks:
- What do you need?
"I came to you, Mr. Pushkin, for your goods," answered the German.
- What? The poet asked again, bewildered.
- You write poetry. I came to buy from you four words from your poems; I do a vaccine and I want to print four words on the label, very good words - "clearer than the day, darker than night." For this I will give you, Mr. composer, 50 rubles. Do you agree?
Pushkin, of course, agreed, and the German, satisfied with the poet's pliability, went off to order the desired labels




Someone, wishing to embarrass Pushkin, asked him in society: "What similarity between me and the sun?".
"Neither you nor the sun can not look without frowning," the poet replied quickly.



At one dinner in Chisinau, a respectable gentleman, a hunter to strong drinks, decided to assure that vodka is better than medicine in the world and that it can be cured even from fever.
"Allow me to doubt," remarked Pushkin. The man was offended and called him a sucker.
"Well, if I'm a sucker," said Pushkin, "then, of course, you are a wine-picker."
