Additional quotes by Niccolò Forteguerri

Translation: Let no man on his back, if he be wise,
A burden bind that is beyond his strength,
Whence, weeping, he ’I cannot bear it’ cries.

Translation: For never shall so firm a knot be tied
But at the last shall burst and broken be.

Translation: None knows how deep, how far beyond all bounds
The pity that by God on man is showered;
For ’tis immeasurable, and its power
To pardon far exceeds our power to sin.
