"Envy and Arrogance and Avarice Are the three sparks that have all hearts enkindled."(Canto VI, lines 74-75, page 33"Lost are we, and are only so far punished,That without hope we live on in desire."(Canto IV, lines 41-42, page 20) Top Ten Quotes1) "'And are you Virgil, you the fountain that freely pours so rich a stream of speech?' I answered him with shame upon my brow. 'O light and honor of all other poets, may my long study and the intense love that made me search your volume serve me now. You are my master and my author, you-the only one from whom my writing drew the noble style for which I have been honored.'" [Dante's first words to Virgil upon meeting him in the dark wood before their journey into Hell. Canto I, Inferno]2) "And when, with gladness in his face, he placed his hand upon my own, to comfort me, he drew me in among the hidden things. Here sighs and lamentations and loud cries were echoing across the starless air, so that, as soon as I set out, I wept. Strange utterances, horrible pronouncements, accents of anger, words of suffering, and voices shrill and faint, and beating hands-all went to make tumult that will whirl forever through that turbid, timeless air, like sand that eddies when a whirlwind swirls." [Dante, as he enters the Gates of Hell. Canto III, Inferno]3) "Their hands were tied behind by serpents; these had thrust their head and tail right through the loins, and then were knotted on the other side. And-there!-a serpent sprang with force at one who stood upon our shore, transfixing him just where the neck and shoulders form a knot. No o or i has ever been transcribed do quickly as that soul caught fire and burned and, as he fell, completely turned to ashes; and when he lay, undone, upon the ground, the dust of him collected by itself and instantly returned to what it was." [Dante's descriptive account of the eternal punishment served by thieves in the Eighth Circle of Hell. Canto XXIV, Inferno]4) "The emperor of the despondent kingdom so towered-from midchest-above the ice, that I match better with a giant's height than giants match the measure of his arms; now you can gauge the size of all of him if it is in proportion to such limbs. If he was once as handsome as he now is ugly and, despite that, raised his brows against his Maker, one can understand how every sorrow has its source in him! I marveled when I saw that, on his head, he had three faces: one--in front-blood red; and then another two that, just above the midpoint of each shoulder, joined the first." [Dante's first impression of Satan. Canto XXXIV, Inferno]5) "I threw myself devoutly at his holy feet, asking him to open out of mercy; but first I beat three times upon my breast. Upon my forehead, he traced seven P's with his sword's point and said: 'When you have entered within, take care to wash away these wounds.' Ashes, or dry earth that has just been quarried, would share one color with his robe, and from beneath that robe he drew two keys; the one was made of gold, the other was of silver; first with the white, then with the yellow key, he plied the gate so as to satisfy me." [The angel guarding the gates of Purgatory prepares Dante for his journey and opens the gates to the mountain of Purgatory. Canto IX, Purgatorio] 6) "My son, you've seen the temporary fire and the eternal fire; you have reached the place past which my powers cannot see. I've brought you here through intellect and art; from now on, let your pleasure be your guide; you're past the steep and past the narrow paths. Look at the sun that shines upon your brow; look at the grasses, flowers, and the shrubs born here, spontaneously, of the earth. Among them, you can rest or walk until the coming of the glad and lovely eyes-those eyes that, weeping, sent me to your side. Await no further word or sign from me: your will is free, erect, and whole-to act against that will would be to err: therefore I crown and miter you over yourself." [Virgil's last words to Dante as he gives Dante the power to guide himself. Canto XXVII, Purgatorio]7) "'Turn, Beatrice, o turn your holy eyes upon your faithful one,' their song beseeched, 'who, that he might see you, has come so far. Out of your grace, do us this grace; unveil your lips to him, so that he may discern the second beauty you have kept concealed.' O splendor of eternal living light, who's ever grown so pale beneath Parnassus' shade or has drunk so deeply from its fountain, that he'd not seem to have his mind confounded, trying to render you as you appeared where heaven's harmony was your pale likeness-your face, seen through the air, unveiled completely?" [The angels in the Earthly 。

（我走过我们人生的一半旅程，却又步入一片幽暗的森林，这是因为我迷失了正确的路径。啊！这森林是多么荒野，多么险恶，多么举步维艰！道出这景象又是多么困难！现在想起也仍会毛骨悚然，尽管这痛苦的煎熬不如丧命那么悲惨；是要谈到我在那里如何逢凶化吉而脱险，我还要说一说我在那里对其他事物的亲眼所见。我无法说明我是如何步入其中，我当时是那样睡眼蒙胧，竟然抛弃正路，不知何去何从。）
