Ludovico Ariosto quotes:

From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.

Man proposes, and God disposes.

They think they have God Almighty by the toe.

Such fire was not by water to be drowned, nor he his nature changed by changing ground.

Nature made him, and then broke the mold.

When the devil grows old he turns hermit.

Cruelty ever proceeds from a vile mind, and often from a cowardly heart.

Who seems most hideous when adorned the most.

For rarely man escapes his destiny.

For rarely man escapes his destiny. [It., Che l'uomo il suo destin fugge di raro.]

I regret not death. I am going to meet my friends in another world.

Such fire was not by water to be drown'd, Nor he his nature changed by changing ground. [Lat., Ne spegner puo per star nell'acqua il foco; Ne puo stato mutar per mutar loco.]
