More quotes by Dante Alighieri
In that part of the book of my memory before the which is little that can be read, there is a rubric, saying, Incipit Vita Nova. Under such rubric I find written many things and among them the words which I purpose to copy into this little book if not all of them, at the least their substance.
Dante Alighieri
Love kindled by virtue always kindles another, provided that its flame appear outwardly.
Dante Alighieri
Follow your path, and let the people talk.
Dante Alighieri
I am the way into the city of woe. I am the way to a forsaken people. I am the way into eternal sorrow. Sacred justice moved my architect. I was raised here by divine omnipotence, Primordial love and ultimate intellect. Only those elements time cannot wear Were made before me, and beyond time I stand. Abandon all hope ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri
Eternal love made me.
Dante Alighieri
He is, most of all, l'amor che move il sole e l'altre stelle.

Dante Alighieri
I saw within Its depth how It conceives All things in a single volume bound by Love of which the universe is the scattered leaves.
Dante Alighieri
Abandon every hope, you who enter.
Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
No one thinks of how much blood it costs.
Dante Alighieri
The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in time of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality. [This miserable mode Maintain the melancholy souls of those Who lived withouten infamy or praise.]
Dante Alighieri
The man who lies asleep will never waken fame.
Dante Alighieri
Consider that this day ne'er dawns again.
Dante Alighieri
Where the way is hardest, there go thou Follow your own path and let people talk.
Dante Alighieri
To course across more kindly waters now my talent's little vessel lifts her sails, leaving behind herself a sea so cruel and what I sing will be that second kingdom, in which the human soul is cleansed of sin, becoming worthy of ascent to Heaven.
Dante Alighieri
I am made of God, through his Grace. Such that your misery touches me not, Nor does flame of that burning assail me.
Dante Alighieri
There is a gentle thought that often springs to life in me, because it speaks of you.
Dante Alighieri
