Additional quotes by Dante Alighieri

E quando mi domandavano: « per cui t'ha cosi distrutto questo amore? » ed io sorridendo li guardava, e nulla dicea loro.

all flee from virtue as if it were a snake,
an enemy to all, whether some curse
is on the place or evil habits goad them on,

'and those who live in that unhappy valley
are so altered in their nature it is as though
Circe were grazing them at pasture.

Thus if this present world has gone askew,
look to yourselves, in yourselves lies the cause.

True love is never lost, not even by a bishop's or a priest's curse, that we cannot regain it, so long as hope has still its bit of green. - Dante Alighieri
