Friedrich Parrot
One who hasn’t seen Armenia knowing Abovyan will see Armenia. He is a piece of Armenia carrying its entity inside himself. He is high as their mountains and deep as their gorges, he can generously bear and forgive. He is boundlessly kind, but in the next moment he could get inflamed, if only a little injustice of the unfair world burn in his flames.
Pion Hakobyan
The most Armenian writer, the greatest patriot, the most emotive individuality, the unrivaled genuine of poetic imagination and creative skills, the sincerest, the sheerest and the highest one.
Sero Khanzadyan
