These have not the hope to die.
Dante Alighieri
That with him were, what time the Love Divine
Dante Alighieri
Your fame is as the grass, whose hue comes and goes, and His might withers it by whose power it sprang from the lap of the earth.
Dante Alighieri
If your world isn't right, the cause is in you.
Dante Alighieri
When we encountered a band of souls coming along the barrier, and each was gazing at us in the evening people gaze at one another under the new moon
Dante Alighieri
He is not always at ease who laughs.
Dante Alighieri
...ma gia volgena il mio disio e'l velle si come rota ch'igualmente e mossa, l'amor che move: i sole e l'altre stelle ...as a wheel turns smoothtly, free from jars, my will and my desire were turned by love, The love that moves the sun and the other stars.
Dante Alighieri
