More quotes by 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
That with him were, what time the Love Divine
Dante Alighieri
The mouse had fallen in with evil cats.
Dante Alighieri
Through me the way into the suffering city, Through me the way to the eternal pain, Through me the way that runs among the lost. Justice urged on my high artificer My maker was divine authority, The highest wisdom, and the primal love. Before me nothing but eternal things were made, And I endure eternally. Abandon every hope, ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri
If your world isn't right, the cause is in you.
Dante Alighieri
Blessed are the peacemakers, For they have freed themselves from sinful wrath.
Dante Alighieri
Abandon every hope, you who enter.
Dante Alighieri
Go forth and preach impostures to the world, But give them truth to build on.
Dante Alighieri
As fall the light autumnal leaves, one still the other following, till the bough strews all its honors on the earth below.
Dante Alighieri
Seldom indeed does human virtue rise From trunk to branch.
Dante Alighieri
The greatest gift that God in His bounty made in creation, and the most conformable to His goodness, and that which He prizes the most, was the freedom of will, with which the creatures with intelligence, they all and they alone, were and are endowed.
Dante Alighieri
The man who lies asleep will never waken fame, and his desire and all his life drift past him like a dream, and the traces of his memory fade from time like smoke in air, or ripples on a stream.
Dante Alighieri
Still desiring, we live without hope.
Dante Alighieri
The more perfect a thing is, the more susceptible to good and bad treatment it is.
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
Three sparks - pride, envy, and avarice - have been kindled in all hearts.
Dante Alighieri
Open your mind to what I shall disclose, and hold it fast within you he who hears, but does not hold what he has heard, learns nothing. Beatrice - Canto V 40-42
Dante Alighieri
Reason flies When following the senses, on clipped wings.
Dante Alighieri
Love, who insists that love shall mutual be, Link'd me to him with charm strong as our fates Even now it leaves me not, as thou dost see.
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
