Dante Alighieri
QUOTATION: Abandon all hope, you who enter here! QUOTATION: Honor the greatest poet. QUOTATION: Consider your breed; QUOTATION: I wept not, so to stone within I grew. QUOTATION: This miserable state is borne by the wretched souls of those
who lived without disgrace and without praise. QUOTATION: The infernal storm, eternal in its rage, sweeps and drives
the spirits with its blast; it whirls them, lashing them with punishment.
When they are swept back past their place of judgment then come the shrieks,
laments, and anguished cries; there they blaspheme Gods almighty
power. QUOTATION: Let us not speak of them; but look, and pass on. QUOTATION: Midway along the journey of our life [Nel mezzo del cammin
di nostra vita] I woke to find myself in a dark wood, for I had wandered
off from the straight path. QUOTATION: There is no greater sorrow than to recall a happy time in
the midst of wretchedness. [1] - [2]
