"What then I saw is more than tongue can say. Our human speech is dark before the vision. The ravished memory swoons and falls away. I saw within Its depth how it conceives all things in a single volume bound by Love, of which the universe is the scattered leaves."

Dante Alighieri, died Sept 1321, in exile from his beloved Florence. Committed to social justice, a man of deep faith, a visionary and prophet, who judged the world and the church by the light of the gospel and the radiance of eternity.

I suppose I could not look at Twitter, but thanks to you, "I saw within Its depth how it conceives all things in a single volume bound by Love, of which the universe is the scattered leaves," will be in my head the rest of the day. Maybe I should thank Dante, too.
