More quotes by Dante Alighieri
Worldly fame is but a breath of wind that blows now this way, and now that, and changes name as it changes direction.
Dante Alighieri
No one thinks of how much blood it costs.
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

Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
I am searching for that which every man seeks-peace and rest.
Dante Alighieri
The man who lies asleep will never waken fame.
Dante Alighieri
Three sparks - pride, envy, and avarice - have been kindled in all hearts.
Dante Alighieri
O mortal men, be wary of how ye judge.
Dante Alighieri
Where the way is hardest, there go thou Follow your own path and let people talk.
Dante Alighieri
He listens well who takes notes.
Dante Alighieri
Mankind is at its best when it is most free. This will be clear if we grasp the principle of liberty. We must recall that the basic principle is freedom of choice, which saying many have on their lips but few in their minds.
Dante Alighieri
They had their faces twisted toward their haunches and found it necessary to walk backward, because they could not see ahead of them. ...And since he wanted so to see ahead, he looks behind and walks a backward path.
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
If a thief helps a poor man out of the spoils of his thieving, we must not call that charity.
Dante Alighieri
