Additional quotes by Dante Alighieri

Oh vana gloria de l'umane posse!
com' poco verde insula cima dura, ...

[Oh quanto é efêmera a glória humana!
quão pouco tempo dura o verde na árvore, ... ] — Dante Alighieri, A Divina Comédia, Canto XI, 91-92

Thy soul is by vile fear assailed, which oft so overcasts a man, that he recoils from noblest resolution, like a beast at some false semblance in the twilight gloom.

For tears and laughter are such pursuivants
Unto the passion from which each springs forth,
In the most truthful least the will they follow.
