Lying in a featherbed will bring you no fame, nor staying beneath the quilt, and he who uses up his life without achieving fame leaves no more vestige of himself on Earth than smoke in the air or foam upon the water.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

The glory of Him who moves everything penetrates through the universe, and is resplendent in one part more and in another less.

To run over better waters the little vessel of my genius now hoists her sails, as she leaves behind her a sea so cruel.

We have no hope and yet we live in longing.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

Those ancients who in poetry presented the golden age, who sang its happy state, perhaps, in their Parnassus, dreamt this place. Here, mankind's root was innocent; and here were every fruit and never-ending spring; these streams--the nectar of which poets sing.

I made my own house be my gallows.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

I affirm that gain is precisel...

I affirm that gain is precisely that which comes oftener to the bad man than to the good; for illegitimate gains never come to the good at all, because they reject them. And lawful gains rarely come to the good, because, since much anxious care is needful thereto, and the anxious care of the good man is directed to weightier matters, rarely does the good man give sufficient attention thereto. Wherefore it is clear that in every way the advent of these riches is iniquitous.

Sounds like you're overcompensating... Besides, I didn't want you to get a creak in your neck from lookin' down at me.

Compassion is not a passion; rather a noble disposition of the soul, made ready to receive love, mercy, and other charitable passions.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

What shall one do with the verse, if he knows not That?

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

Unity in wills cannot be unles...

Unity in wills cannot be unless there is one will dominating and ruling all the rest to oneness... wills of mortals have need of a directive principle... therefore for the well-being of the world, there should be a monarchy.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

No man may be so cursed by priest or pope but what the Eternal Love may still return while any thread of green lives on in hope.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

He who awaits the call, but sees the need, Already sets his spirit to refuse it.

Reason flies When following the senses, on clipped wings.

A prayer may chance to rise From one whose heart lives in the grace of God. A prayer from any other is unheeded.

O mortal men, be wary of how ye judge.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

In judgement be ye not too con...

In judgement be ye not too confident, Even as a man who will appraise his corn When standing in a field, ere it is ripe.

Dante Alighieri 287 quotes

Give unto us this day the daily manna Without which, in this desert where we dwell, He must go backward who would most advance.

Many have justice in their hearts, but slowly it is let fly, for it comes not without council to the bow.
