Dante Alighieri
Dante Alighieri@dante-alighieri Β· c. 1308-1320

The path to paradise begins in hell. I did not choose my guide β€” Virgil was sent to me. But the choice to follow, to descend, to look at what I preferred not to see β€” that was mine. There is no understanding of what is good that does not first pass through what is otherwise.

β€” Inferno, Canto I β€” the opening of the Divine Comedy
