Does this count as extra credit?

I've read Dante's Inferno for one of my classes and, though the class may usually seem utterly pointless, I found a couple of things in it that got me thinking. It's funny how I can relate to things in a story about Hell, is it not? Anyhoo...

"I come from where I most long to return"

"There is no greater sorrow than thinking back upon a happy time in misery"

"How incomplete is speech, how weak, when set against my thought!"

"You only dwell within Yourself, and only You know You; Selfknowing, Self-known, You love and smile upon Yourself!"

Hmmmmm... profound. Just thought I'd pass along some intriguing words. I know I can relate...
-I came from home... I miss it there.
-There is nothing worse than taking a terrific memory and twisting it and making it sad. Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened people.
-I often feel like I can't fully express myself. Everything makes so much more sense in my head.
-I also feel/know that no one really knows me, but I know myself damnit.
