Follow your path, and let the people talk.
Dante Alighieri
Image
As little flowers, which the chill of night has bent and huddled, when the white sun strikes, grow straight and open fully on their stems, so did I, too, with my exhausted force.
Dante Alighieri
Image
O how far remov'd, Predestination! is thy foot from such As see not the First Cause entire: and ye, O mortal men! be wary how ye judge: For we, who see the Maker, know not yet The number of the chosen and esteem Such scantiness of knowledge our delight: For all good is, in that primal good, Concentrate and God's will and ours are one.
Dante Alighieri
Image
As one who sees in dreams and wakes to find the emotional impression of his vision still powerful while its parts fade from his mind - Just such am I, having lost nearly all the vision itself, while in my heart I feel the sweetness of it yet distill and fall.

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.

Abandon every hope, ye who enter here.

Dante Alighieri
Image
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
Image
Love, who insists that love shall mutual be, Link'd me to him with charm strong as our fates Even now it leaves me not, as thou dost see.
