Beers & Books CXXIX – Dante Aleghieri

                        "I love to doubt as well as know."

*
Divine Comedy
*
"The secret of getting things done is to act!"
*
Follow your path, and let the people talk.
*
"He who sees a need
and waits to be asked for help
is as unkind as if he had refused it."
*
"The hottest places in hell
are reserved for those who,
in time of great moral crisis,
maintain their neutrality.


Dante Aleghieri (1265 – 14 September 1321)
