547 Quotes by Dante Alighieri

Seldom indeed does human virtue rise From trunk to branch.

If you follow your natural bent;you will definitely go to heaven

And we came forth to contemplate the stars.

It is no learning to understand what you do not retain.

e quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle" ("and thence we came forth to see again the stars")

It is necessity and not pleasure that compels us.

...ma gia volgena il mio disio e'l velle si come rota ch'igualmente e mossa, l'amor che move: i sole e l'altre stelle ...as a wheel turns smoothtly, free from jars, my will and my desire were turned by love, The love that moves the sun and the other stars.

He who shall never be divided from me kissed my mouth all trembling.

Doubting charms me not less than knowledge.
