Image
O mortal men, be wary of how ye judge.
Dante Alighieri
Image
I am searching for that which every man seeks-peace and rest.
Dante Alighieri
Image
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
Image
If a thief helps a poor man out of the spoils of his thieving, we must not call that charity.
Dante Alighieri
Image
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
Image
All of nature is God's art.
Dante Alighieri

Love insists the loved loves back
Dante Alighieri
Image
Be like a solid tower whose brave height remains unmoved by all the winds that blow the man who lets his thoughts be turned aside by one thing or another, will lose sight of his true goal, his mind sapped of its strength.
Dante Alighieri
Image
Blessed are the peacemakers, For they have freed themselves from sinful wrath.
Dante Alighieri
Image
How come I never meet any nice girls?
Dante Alighieri
Image
And as he, who with laboring breath has escaped from the deep to the shore, turns to the perilous waters and gazes.
Dante Alighieri
Image
There is a gentle thought that often springs to life in me, because it speaks of you.
Dante Alighieri
Image
I found myself within a forest dark.
Dante Alighieri
Image
The more perfect a thing is, the more susceptible to good and bad treatment it is.
Dante Alighieri
Image
As the geometer intently seeks to square the circle, but he cannot reach, through thought on thought, the principle he needs, so I searched that strange sight.
Dante Alighieri
Image
Curb your talent lest it speed where virtue does not guide.
Dante Alighieri
Image
Thou shall know by experience how salt the savor is of others' bread, and how sad a path it is to climb and descend another's stairs.
Dante Alighieri
Image
Do ye not comprehend that we are worms born to bring forth the angelic butterfly that flieth unto judgment without screen?
Dante Alighieri
Image
I felt for the tormented whirlwinds Damned for their carnal sins Committed when they let their passions rule their reason.
Dante Alighieri
Image
Before me things created were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri
