More quotes by Dante Alighieri
The secret of getting things done is to act!
Dante Alighieri
I am the way into the city of woe. I am the way to a forsaken people. I am the way into eternal sorrow. Sacred justice moved my architect. I was raised here by divine omnipotence, Primordial love and ultimate intellect. Only those elements time cannot wear Were made before me, and beyond time I stand. Abandon all hope ye who enter here.
Dante Alighieri
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.
Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
O human race, born to fly upward, wherefore at a little wind dost thou so fall?
Dante Alighieri
Give unto us this day the daily manna Without which, in this desert where we dwell, He must go backward who would most advance.
Dante Alighieri
But if, as morning rises, dreams are true.
Dante Alighieri
A rapid bolt will rend the clouds apart, and every single White be seared by wounds. I tell you this. I want it all to hurt.
