More quotes by Dante Alighieri
Come, follow me, and leave the world to its babblings.
Dante Alighieri
The day that man allows true love to appear, those things which are well made will fall into cofusion and will overturn everything we believe to be right and true.
Dante Alighieri
Thus you may understand that love alone is the true seed of every merit in you, and of all acts for which you must atone.
Dante Alighieri
But already my desire and my will were being turned like a wheel, all at one speed, by the Love which moves the sun and the other stars
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
To get back up to the shining world from there My guide and I went into that hidden tunnel, And Following its path, we took no care To rest, but climbed: he first, then I-so far, through a round aperture I saw appear Some of the beautiful things that Heaven bears, Where we came forth, and once more saw the stars.
Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
Before me things created were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
If a thief helps a poor man out of the spoils of his thieving, we must not call that charity.
Dante Alighieri
O faithful conscience, delicately pure, how doth a little failing wound thee sore!
Dante Alighieri
How come I never meet any nice girls?
Dante Alighieri
There is in hell a place stone-built throughout, Called Malebolge, of an iron hue, Like to the wall that circles it about.
Dante Alighieri
It may be that a more subtle person would find for this thing a reason of greater subtlety: but such is the reason that I find, and that liketh me best.
Dante Alighieri
Abandon every hope, you who enter.
Dante Alighieri
Abandon hope, all ye who enter here. [Omnes relinquite spes, o vos intrantes]
Dante Alighieri
They yearn for what they fear for.
Dante Alighieri
Heaven wheels above you, displaying to you her eternal glories, and still your eyes are on the ground.
Dante Alighieri
But if, as morning rises, dreams are true.
Dante Alighieri
Three things remain with us from paradise: stars, flowers and children.
Dante Alighieri
