Abandon every hope, ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri

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

Dante Alighieri
I presumed to fix my look on the eternal light so long that I consumed my sight thereon.
Dante Alighieri
Eternal love made me.
Dante Alighieri
