Additional quotes by Dante Alighieri
Ne li occhi porta la mia donna Amore, per che si fa gentil ciò ch’ella mira; ov’ella passa, ogn’om ver lei si gira, e cui saluta fa tremar lo core, sì che, bassando il viso, tutto smore, e d’ogni suo difetto allor sospira: fugge dinanzi a lei superbia ed ira. Aiutatemi, donne, farle onore. Ogne dolcezza, ogne pensero umile nasce nel core a chi parlar la sente, ond’è laudato chi prima la vide. Quel ch’ella par quando un poco sorride, non si pò dicer né tenere a mente, sì è novo miracolo e gentile.

The mind which is created quick to love, is responsive to everything that is pleasing, soon as by pleasure it is awakened into activity. Your apprehensive faculty draws an impression from a real object, and unfolds it within you, so that it makes the mind turn thereto. And if, being turned, it inclines towards it, that inclination is love; that is nature, which through pleasure is bound anew within you.
