b -  Ca. 1890. Dante Alighieri. "The Vision; or Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise, of Dante Alighieri" - Dante's Comedy

Quote

The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis." - Dante Alighieri,



 Note

Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy," specifically from the opening lines of "Inferno," the first part of the trilogy:

"In the middle of the journey of our life, I came to myself, in a dark wood, where the direct way had been lost."

These lines set the stage for Dante's allegorical journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven, exploring themes of sin, redemption, and divine justice. "The Divine Comedy" is a monumental work in literature and serves as a profound exploration of the human condition.
