Alighieri

Famous quotes containing the word alighieri:

    Utterly frozen is this youthful lady,
    Even as the snow that lies within the shade;
    For she is no more moved than is the stone
    By the sweet season which makes warm the hills
    —Dante Alighieri (1265–1321)

    If anyone should want to know my name, I am called Leah. And I spend all my time weaving garlands of flowers with my fair hands, to please me when I stand before the mirror; my sister Rachel sits all the day long before her own, and never moves away. She loves to contemplate her lovely eyes; I love to use my hands to adorn myself: her joy is in reflection, mine in act.
    —Dante Alighieri (1265–1321)

    Honor the greatest poet.
    —Dante Alighieri (1265–1321)
