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

Dante Alighieri
Love and the gentle heart are but the same thing.
Dante Alighieri
