Topic: famous sayings, sayings, phrases, quotes from “Woe from Wit.” Reference: Comedy in verse “Woe from Wit” - A. S. Griboyedov - is a work from a classic of Russian literature. It describes the life of secular society in 1822, the time of serfdom, ten years after the War of 1812.

Alexander Sergeevich Griboyedov is the author of a wonderful comedy that everyone knows from school. Most of all, the catchphrases from the comedy “Woe from Wit” are remembered. While reading a work, they are perceived easily and are stored in memory for a long time. Catchphrases from the comedy “Woe from Wit” are always filled with psychologism and acute problems. A person many years after reading a comedy can remember them. This article examines quotes from “Woe from Wit” and explains their meaning.

The characters of Alexander Griboedov are probably known to everyone: Famusov, Sofya, Chatsky, Lisa, Molchalin, Skalozub, etc. Each of them has its own individual character. Chatsky stands out among others in comedy. He is the only one who wants to live by his own laws and often finds himself misunderstood by society. Most of all, Chatsky’s quotes are remembered. “Woe from Wit” is the greatest monument of Russian literature, which to this day causes numerous disputes and discussions.

“The houses are new, but the prejudices are old”

The meaning of this statement is that society often lives based on old dogmas and ideas. If decisions are made on the basis of previous beliefs, it means that to some young people they will seem blasphemous, wrong, humiliating to the individual, and not allowing her to fully express her essence. Catchphrases from the comedy “Woe from Wit,” like this one, make it possible to trace the destructive effect of the old foundations and the previous system.

Chatsky with this expression emphasizes his incomprehensibility, isolation from a world in which hypocrisy and pretense flourish.

“I’d be glad to serve, but it’s sickening to be served”

Perhaps the reader is most familiar with Chatsky’s statements. Quotes from the comedy “Woe from Wit” are replete with openness and sincerity. Chatsky expresses his own position very clearly and does not intend to hide his opinion on this or that issue. Most of all, the hero is disgusted by hypocrisy and profitable helpfulness towards seniors. At every opportunity, Chatsky gives truthful comments that can be considered the words of a truly sane person. Catchphrases from the comedy “Woe from Wit,” like this one, mark unhealthy relationships within society itself at the beginning of the 19th century, where deception, flattery, unkind glances, and discussions behind one’s back flourish.

“Where, tell us, are the fathers of the Fatherland whom we should take as models?”

Chatsky continuously searches for the truth in this world. He wants to see next to him a reliable friend, ally, responsible and honest person. Instead, he is faced with an unsightly reality that makes him completely disillusioned with people. He often observes the older generation, old enough to be his fathers, but does not find a true example to follow. The young man does not want to be like Famusov, who simply wasted his life, or anyone else from his circle. The tragedy is that no one understands Chatsky, he feels lonely and lost among this “masquerade” that society plays. This statement sounds both as a statement of fact and as a bitter regret. Perhaps other catchphrases from the comedy “Woe from Wit” do not sink into the soul as much as this one. What is actually depicted here is the irreconcilable, almost revolutionary essence of the main character himself.

"Evil tongues are worse than a gun"

These words are spoken by the character Molchalin. He gives the impression of a quiet, predictable, flexible person who is ready to please others under any circumstances. But Molchalin is not as simple as it seems. He clearly understands the benefits of his behavior and, when the opportunity arises, adapts to the changing conditions of social life. Helpful and always ready to obey, he does not notice how every day he loses himself more and more, rejects his dreams (if he ever had them), and gets lost. At the same time, Molchalin is very afraid that other people (perhaps even those around him) will at some point betray him, turn away, or in a certain way laugh at his clumsiness.

“Ranks are given by people, but people can be deceived”

Chatsky is deeply outraged by the way in which high ranks are obtained in this society. All that is required of a person is to be attentive and helpful towards his immediate superior. Attitude to work, abilities and talents, high aspirations - all this, according to his observation, has absolutely no meaning. The conclusions that the young man draws are very sad and disappointing. He simply does not know how it is possible to continue to exist freely in a society that rejects everything true and correct.

Quotes from “Woe from Wit” are filled with vivid emotionality. When you read the work for the first time, you involuntarily begin to sympathize with the main character, together with him you are amazed at the unhealthy Famus society and worry about the general outcome of events.

"Woe from Wit"- comedy in verse by A. S. Griboedov. A work that made its creator a classic of Russian literature. The comedy combines elements of classicism and romanticism and realism, which were new to the early 19th century.

The comedy "Woe from Wit" - a satire on aristocratic Moscow society in the first half of the 19th century - is one of the peaks of Russian drama and poetry; actually completed “comedy in verse” as a genre. The aphoristic style contributed to the fact that she “went into quotations.”

Plot:

The young nobleman Alexander Andreevich Chatsky returns from abroad to his beloved, Sofya Pavlovna Famusova, whom he has not seen for three years. The young people grew up together and loved each other from childhood. Sophia was offended by Chatsky because he unexpectedly abandoned her, went to St. Petersburg and “did not write three words.”

Chatsky arrives at Famusov’s house with the decision to marry Sophia. Contrary to his expectations, Sophia greets him very coldly. It turns out that she is in love with someone else. Her chosen one is the young secretary Alexei Stepanovich Molchalin, who lives in her father’s house. Chatsky cannot understand “who is nice” to Sophia. In Molchalin he sees only a “most pitiful creature”, not worthy of Sofia Pavlovna’s love, unable to love passionately and selflessly. In addition, Chatsky despises Molchalin for trying to please everyone, for his respect for rank. Having learned that it was precisely such a person who won Sophia’s heart, Chatsky becomes disappointed in his beloved.

Chatsky pronounces eloquent monologues in which he denounces Moscow society (whose ideologist is Sophia's father Pavel Afanasyevich Famusov). However, there are rumors in society about Chatsky's madness, started by the annoyed Sophia. At the end of the play, Chatsky decides to leave Moscow.

In the comedy, only 2 classical unities are observed: place and time (the action takes place in Famusov’s house during the day); the third unity - actions - is absent; there are 2 storylines in the work: Chatsky’s love and the confrontation between Chatsky and Moscow society. The main idea of the tragicomedy: the protest of a free individual “against the vile Russian reality.” (A.S. Griboyedov).

The houses are new, but the prejudices are old; rejoice, neither years, nor fashion, nor fires will destroy them.
Chatsky

I walked into the room and ended up in another.
Sophia

She can't sleep from French books,
And the Russians make it hard for me to sleep.
Famusov

Chatsky

What new will Moscow show me?
Yesterday there was a ball, and tomorrow there will be two.
Chatsky

Ranks are given by people,
And people can be deceived.
Chatsky

At my age I shouldn't dare
Have your own judgment.
Molchalin

Silent people are blissful in the world!
Chatsky

And, however, he will reach the known degrees,
After all, nowadays they love the dumb.
Chatsky

No other sample is needed
When your father's example is in your eyes.
Famusov

A confusion of languages still prevails:
French with Nizhny Novgorod?
Chatsky

I'm strange, but who isn't?
The one who is like all fools;
Molchalin, for example...

The eyes are dark and the soul is frozen;
Sin is not a problem, rumor is not good.
Lisa

I have fun when I meet funny people
And more often than not I miss them.
Chatsky

Of course, he doesn’t have this mind,
What a genius is to some, is a plague to others.
Sophia

When I'm busy, I hide from fun,
When I'm fooling around, I'm fooling around
And mix these two crafts
There are many masters, I am not one of them.
Chatsky

Although there are hunters everywhere to be mean,
Yes, nowadays laughter frightens and keeps shame in check;
No wonder the sovereigns favor them sparingly.
Chatsky

Just think how capricious happiness is!
Sophia

ABOUT! if someone penetrated people:
What's worse about them? Soul or language?
Chatsky

It's barely light and you're already on your feet! And I'm at your feet.
Chatsky

Some dreams are strange, but in reality they are stranger.
Famusov

My custom is this:
Signed, off your shoulders.
Famusov

Fate, the naughty naughty girl,
I defined it this way:
To all stupid people - happiness comes from madness,
To all smart people - woe from the mind.
epigraph to "Woe from Wit", not written by A.S. Griboyedov

What do I need rumors? Whoever wants to, judges it that way.
Sophia

Besides honesty, there are many joys:
They scold you here and thank you there.
Chatsky

So! I have completely sobered up
Dreams out of sight - and the veil fell.
Chatsky

Why not a husband?
There is only little intelligence in him;
But to have children,
Who lacked intelligence?
Chatsky

Fate seemed to be protecting us;
No worries, no doubts...
And grief awaits around the corner.
Sophia

The fate of love is to play blind man's buff.
Chatsky

At least someone will be embarrassed
Quick questions and a curious look...
Sophia

I'll tell you the truth about you,
Which is worse than any lie.
Platon Mikhailovich Gorich

In Russia, under a great fine,
We are told to recognize everyone
Historian and geographer!
Chatsky

Yes, no urine. A million torments
Breasts from a friendly vice
Feet from shuffling, ears from exclamations,
And worse than my head from all sorts of trifles.
Chatsky

For mercy, you and I are not guys;
Why are other people's opinions only sacred?
Chatsky

He never uttered a smart word, -
I don’t care what goes into the water.
Sophia

I don't remember anything, don't bother me.
Memories! Like a sharp knife.
Sophia

Husband-boy, husband-servant, from the wife's pages -
The high ideal of all Moscow men.
Chatsky

Where, show us, are the fathers of the fatherland,
Which ones should we take as models?
Aren't these the ones who are rich in robbery?
They found protection from court in friends, in kinship,
Magnificent building chambers,
Where they spill out in feasts and extravagance,
And where foreign clients will not be resurrected
The meanest features of the past life.
And who in Moscow didn’t have their mouths covered?
Lunches, dinners and dances?
Chatsky

(January 4, 1795 - January 30, 1829) - Russian diplomat, poet, playwright and composer.
Alexander Sergeevich was one of the most educated, talented and noble nobles of the 19th century. The scope of his creative activity is extensive. He was not only an excellent playwright and poet, the author of the famous “Woe from Wit,” but also a talented composer, a polyglot who spoke ten languages.
During the Russian-Persian War, he actively participated in negotiations with representatives of the Persian Shah and the development of key conditions for the Turkmanchay Peace Treaty (1828), which was beneficial for Russia.
The diplomat's merits were noted by his appointment as Russian Ambassador to Persia. On the way to Persia, he lived for several months in Tiflis, where he married the 16-year-old Georgian princess Nina Chavchavadze. Their relationship, full of romanticism and love, was imprinted for centuries in her words, engraved on the tombstone of Alexander Sergeevich: “Your mind and deeds are immortal in Russian memory, but why did she outlive you, my love?” They lived only a few months in marriage, but this woman carried loyalty to her husband throughout the rest of her life.
On January 30, 1829, the Russian embassy in Tehran was attacked by a brutal crowd of religious fanatics. Several dozen Cossacks and employees led by Griboyedov, who defended the embassy, were brutally killed. All defenders of the mission died, including Griboedov.
Alexander Sergeevich Griboyedov lived only 34 years. He managed to create only one literary work and two waltzes. But they glorified his name throughout the civilized world.
