Dante

T.S. Eliot (1888-1965), "Dante," Selected Essays, new ed. (New York: Harcourt, Brace & World, Inc., 1964), pp. 199-237 (at 212):
The majority of poems one outgrows and outlives, as one outgrows and outlives the majority of human passions: Dante's is one of those which one can only just hope to grow up to at the end of life.
