More quotes by Dante Alighieri
No sorrow is deeper than the remembrance of happiness when in misery.
Dante Alighieri
No one thinks of how much blood it costs.
Dante Alighieri
There is no greater pain than to remember, in our present grief, past happiness.
Dante Alighieri
I care not where my body may take me as long as my soul is embarked on a meaningful journey.
Dante Alighieri
From a small spark, Great flame has risen.
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
Pure essence, and pure matter, and the two joined into one were shot forth without flaw, like three bright arrows from a three-string bow.
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
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
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri
...ma gia volgena il mio disio e'l velle si come rota ch'igualmente e mossa, l'amor che move: i sole e l'altre stelle ...as a wheel turns smoothtly, free from jars, my will and my desire were turned by love, The love that moves the sun and the other stars.
Dante Alighieri
Conscience, that boon companion who sets a man free under the strong breastplate of innocence, that bids him on and fear not.
Dante Alighieri
You can stay and die or you can walk your ugly ass back through that gate. It's your call, pal.
Dante Alighieri
Mankind is at its best when it is most free.
Dante Alighieri
Knowledge comes Of learning well retain'd, unfruitful else.
Dante Alighieri
The human race finds itself in a better situation when it has the higher level of freedom.
Dante Alighieri
Do ye not comprehend that we are worms born to bring forth the angelic butterfly that flieth unto judgment without screen?
Dante Alighieri
Midway upon the journey of our life
Dante Alighieri
e quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle (and thence we came forth to see again the stars)
Dante Alighieri
And as he, who with laboring breath has escaped from the deep to the shore, turns to the perilous waters and gazes.
Dante Alighieri
