What shall one do with the verse, if he knows not That?
Dante Alighieri
Three things remain with us from paradise: stars, flowers and children.
Dante Alighieri
At the midpoint on the journey of life, I found myself in a dark forest, for the clear path was lost.
Dante Alighieri
Those ancients who in poetry presented the golden age, who sang its happy state, perhaps, in their Parnassus, dreamt this place. Here, mankind's root was innocent and here were every fruit and never-ending spring these streams--the nectar of which poets sing.
Dante Alighieri
There is no greater pain than to remember, in our present grief, past happiness.
Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
It was the hour of morning, when the sun mounts with those stars that shone with it when God's own love first set in motion those fair things
Dante Alighieri
O power of fantasy that steals our minds from things outside, to leave us unaware, although a thousand trumpets may blow loud--what stirs you if the senses show you nothing? Light stirs you, formed in Heaven, by itself, or by His will Who sends it down to us.
Dante Alighieri
Before me things created were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri
In each fire there is a spirit Each one is wrapped in what is burning him.
Dante Alighieri
O conscience, upright and stainless, how bitter a sting to thee is a little fault!
Dante Alighieri
Mankind, why do ye set your hearts on things That, of necessity, may not be shared?
Dante Alighieri
There is a gentle thought that often springs to life in me, because it speaks of you.
Dante Alighieri
Nothing which is harmonized by the bond of the Muse can be changed from its own to another language without destroying its sweetness
Dante Alighieri
Where the way is hardest, there go thou Follow your own path and let people talk.
Dante Alighieri
It is necessity and not pleasure that compels us.
Dante Alighieri
