>Can someone point me to a basic Collection of quotations from Russian
>poetry, of the "Famous quotes" variety, either in easily accessible
>book form or on some web-site?

>Explanation: I teach an advanced Russian course focused on poetry. As
>part of their work, I want my students to remember certain key lines
>that are commonly known by most Russians.
>I was easy for me to point out the Pushkin lines I wanted them to
>know (e.g. lines from Mednyi Vsadnik, from "Exegi monumentum," from
>"Ia pomniu chudnoe mgnoven'e," from "October 19th" etc.),  ...
>but as we go on it occurs to me that I would like some outside
>confirmation that such-and-such line is indeed famous and popular.
