Consider your origins: you were not made to live as brutes, but to follow virtue and knowledge.
Dante AlighieriThe greatest gift that God in His bounty made in creation, and the most conformable to His goodness, and that which He prizes the most, was the freedom of will, with which the creatures with intelligence, they all and they alone, were and are endowed.
Dante AlighieriI care not where my body may take me as long as my soul is embarked on a meaningful journey.
Dante Alighieri
