Dante Alighieri
Consider the sea's listless chime: Time's self it is, made audible.
Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
Reason flies When following the senses, on clipped wings.
Dante Alighieri
If your world isn't right, the cause is in you.
Dante Alighieri
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri
How come I never meet any nice girls?
Dante Alighieri
I am searching for that which every man seeks-peace and rest.
Dante Alighieri
If you're asking for a date, forget it. 'Cause I make it a point not to go out with women who shoot me in the head!
Dante Alighieri
No sorrow is deeper than the remembrance of happiness when in misery.
Dante Alighieri
