He who sees a need and waits to be asked for help is as unkind as if he had refused it.
Dante AlighieriConsider your origin. You were not formed to live like brutes but to follow virtue and knowledge.
Dante Alighieriso word for word/My master spoke, and I asked him for the food/To fill the appetite these words inspired.
Dante AlighieriIt was the hour of morning,
when the sun mounts with those stars
that shone with it when God's own love
first set in motion those fair things
Thus you may understand that love alone
is the true seed of every merit in you,
and of all acts for which you must atone.
O you, who in some pretty boat,
Eager to listen, have been following
Behind my ship, that singing sails along
Turn back to look again upon your own shores;
Tempt not the deep, lest unawares,
In losing me, you yourselves might be lost.
The sea I sail has never yet been passed;
Minerva breathes, and pilots me Apollo,
And Muses nine point out to me the Bears.
You other few who have neck uplifted
Betimes to the bread of angels upon Which one lives and does not grow sated,
Well may you launch your vessel
Upon the deep sea.
L'amor che move il sole e l'altre stelle.
