Dante Alighieri II

My course is set for an uncharted sea.

Do not be afraid; our fate
Cannot be taken from us; it is a gift.

There is no greater sorrow
Than to recall a happy time
When miserable.

In that book which is my memory,
On the first page of the chapter that is the day when I first met you,
Appear the words, ‘Here begins a new life’.

The path to paradise begins in hell.

Remember tonight... for it is the beginning of always.

All hope abandon, ye who enter here.

In the middle of the journey of our life I found myself within a dark woods where the straight way was lost.

The more a thing is perfect, the more if feels pleasure and pain.

The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis.

Beauty awakens the soul to act.

No sadness is greater than in misery to rehearse memories of joy.
