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.

Dante Alighieri
He is not always at ease who laughs.
Dante Alighieri
What shall one do with the verse, if he knows not That?

Dante Alighieri
Do not desert me when I need you most. And if we can't go on together, let's retrace our steps as quickly as we can.
Dante Alighieri
