The general meaning of the universe is revealed in the soul of the poet in a two-fold fashion: from its external side as the beauty of nature, and from the internal side as love, and namely in its most intensive and concentrated expression - as sexual love. These two themes: the eternal beauty of nature and the infinite power of love together make up the essential content of pure lyricism.
- Vladimir Solov'ev, 'O liricheskoj poezu'
