- “Ty Boże, ty naturo! dajcie posłuchanie.Godna to was muzyka i godne śpiewanie.Ja mistrz!Ja mistrz wyciągam dłonie!Wyciągam aż w niebiosa i kładę me dłonieNa gwiazdach jak na szklannych harmoniki kręgach.”
- “Kiedy spojrzę w kometę z całą mocą duszy,Dopóki na nią patrzę, z miejsca się nie ruszy.”

- “Tyran wstał — Herod! — Panie, cała Polska młoda Wydana w ręce Heroda. Co widzę — długie, białe, dróg krzyżowych biegi, Drogi długie — nie dojrzeć — przez puszcze, przez śniegi Wszystkie na północ! tam, tam w kraj daleki, Płyną jak rzeki.”
- “Będę o to Pana Boga pytać,On to wszystko zapisał, wszystko mnie opowie.”
- “Monsters merge and welter through the water's mounting Din. All hands, stand fast! A sailor sprints aloft,Hangs, swelling spider-like, among invisible nets,Surveys his slowly undulating snares, and waits.”

Encyclopedic overview
Adam Bernard Mickiewicz (24 December 1798 – 26 November 1855) was a Polish poet, dramatist, essayist, publicist, translator and political activist. He is regarded as national poet in Poland, Lithuania and Belarus. He also largely influenced Ukrainian literature and affected Russian literature. A principal figure in Polish Romanticism, he is one of Poland's "Three Bards" (Polish: trzej wieszcze) and is widely regarded as Poland's greatest poet. He is also considered one of the greatest Slavic and European poets and has been dubbed a "Slavic bard".
He is known chiefly for the poetic drama Dziady (Forefathers' Eve) and the national epic poem Pan Tadeusz. His other influential works include Konrad Wallenrod and Grażyna. All these served as inspiration for uprisings against the three imperial powers that had partitioned the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth out of existence. His works also promoted the Lithuanian National Revival; the opening of Lithuania's national anthem, Tautiška giesmė (1898), is a paraphrase of the opening of Pan Tadeusz.
