He contributed significantly to Russian journalism and literary circles during his lifetime. Here is 1 of his quotes:

Delvig's best poem is the one he dedicated to Pushkin . A boy of sixteen, prophesying in exact detail literary immortality to a boy of fifteen, and doing it in a poem that is itself immortal-this is a combination of intuitive genius and actual destiny to which I can find no parallel in the history of world poetry.
