Additional quotes by Torquato Tasso

For what the most neglects, most curious prove,
So Beauty's helped by Nature, Heaven, and Love.

In what a narrow circuit, among what
abandoned solitudes your fame lies bound!
Amid vast seas your island earth is shut,
though "vast" or "ocean", or what words resound
to name that sea, are idle names and fond,
for what it is: a shallow bog, a pond.

Il gran nemico dell'umane genti.

Women have tongues of craft, and hearts of guile, They will, they will not; fools that on them trust. - Torquato Tasso
