Por ti fui poeta, por ti fui cristiano, mas para que veas mejor lo que te pinto, extenderé las manos a fin de darle más colorido. - Dante Alighieri

Additional quotes by Dante Alighieri
Today your hungerings will find their peace through that sweet fruit that mortal care seeks among so many branches.... Look at the sun that shines upon your brow. Look at the grasses, flowers, shrubs, born here, spontaneously of the earth. Among them you can rest to walk until the coming of the glad and lovely eyes that, weeping, sent me to your side.
Await no further word or sign from me: your will is free, erect, and whole- to act against that will would be to err. Therefore, I crown and miter you over yourself.
Ничтожества одни.
В них смысла нет, - ответил мой спаситель, -
Поверь мне, что еще в земные дни
Их существами жалкими считали,
Поскольку ни героями они,
Ни явными злодеями не стали.
А с ними стая ангелов, грехов
Не ведающих, но они в они в опале
За странный выбор свой, а он таков:
Ни зло и ни добро, а нечто между.
Тогда Господь и свергнул с облаков,
Как сбрасывают грязную одежду,
И даже Ад принять их не хотел,
Ведь даже мир утративших надежду,
На них всегда с презрением глядел
