Ever too prone is mans activity to shirk
In unconditioned rest he fain would live;
Hence this companion purposely I give,
Who stirs, excites, and must, as devil, work.

Milton’s Paradise (#1)

God said to Moses once: ‘Go out and find
The secret truth that haunts the devil’s mind.’
When Moses met the devil that same day
He asked for his advice and heard him say:
‘Remember this, repeat it constantly,
Don’t speak of ‘me’, or you will be like me.’
If life still holds you by a single hair,
The end of all your toil will be despair;
No matter how you prosper, there will rise
Before your face a hundred smirking ‘I’s.

The Devil’s secret

Why the Devil? Why pain and anger?

What of capabilities, of one disheartened spirit?
And learning inabilities, an ass must inherit,
What of smaller strives, that day to day retain,
How target dreams of big, when efforts carry pain;
For find you no such purpose,
That life must predefine,
As life is ever renewing,
Each day anew you mine;

Dante – Inferno Quote #1

Posted 1 year ago / quote, Uncategorized

﷽ “ I wish to know if man can satisfy you For broken vows with other good deeds, so That in your balance they will not be light.” She gazed upon me with her eyes Full of the sparks of love, and so divine, That, overcome my power, I turned my back. And almost lost […]
