Additional quotes by Ludovico Ariosto

The traveller, he, whom sea or mountain sunder
From his own country, sees things strange and new;
That the misjudging vulgar, which lies under
The mist of ignorance, esteems untrue.

Che, per altri voler, perder se stesso?

Driven raving mad by love—and he a man who had been always esteemed for his great prudence.
