Quotes that capture.... well they capture me!


I use to really enjoy digging up thought provoking quotes. Quotes that made me think. Lately I've started that again. There is almost a sense of peace capturing the simple thought of another and finding a peace knowing that they got the very same way you feel. Its almost as if you can capture the moment and not feel so alone.

Today I ran across this from Dante Alighieri.
"Remember tonight, for it is the beginning of always."

Dante Alighieri isn't your typical reading. The Devine Comedy and Inferno isn't coffee table reading, pick it up off the book shelf this looks interesting reading. Its the kind of reading I recall honestly hating in school. But today, doing a search I came across his quotes.....wow.

It makes me almost want to consider going back to school to study this in Literature again.

Further study found this ..... I know, hopeless romantic that I am.

Remember tonight
For it is the beginning of always.
A promise
Like a reward for persisting life so long alone.
A decision
To ignore or simply arise above the pain of the past.
The covenant,
Which at once binds two souls and yet severs prior ties.
The celebration,
Of the chance taken and the challenges that lies ahead.
For two will always be stronger than one.
Like a team,
Braced against the tempest of the world.
And love
Will always be the guiding force in our lives.
For tonight is a mere formality
Only an announcement to the world for feelings long held.
Promises made long ago
In the sacred spaces of our hearts...
