About Dante Alighieri
Dante Alighieri (c. 30 May 1265 – 13 September 1321), most likely baptized Durante di Alighiero degli Alighieri, was an Italian poet, writer and philosopher. His Divine Comedy, originally called Comedìa (modern Italian: Commedia) and later christened Divina by Giovanni Boccaccio, is widely considered one of the most important poems of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary work in the Italian language.

Additional quotes by Dante Alighieri
اي آنكه داخل ميشوي، دست از هر اميدي بشوي
No one, while hope shows any hint of green, is lost beyond return to love eternal merely because the Church has voiced its curse.
[Sonetto I]
A ciascun' alma presa e gentil core
nel cui cospetto ven lo dir presente,
a ciò che mi rescriva in su' parvente,
salute in lor segnor, ciò é Amore.
Gia eran quasi que atterzate l'ore
del tempo che onne stella n'è lucente,
quando m'apparve Amor subitamente,
cui essenza membrar mi dà orrore.
Allegro mi sembrava Amor tenendo
meo core in mano, e ne le bracci' avea
madonna involta 'n un drappo dormendo;
poi la svegliava, d'esto core ardendo
lei paventosa umilmente pascea:
appresso gir lo ne vedea piagendo.
