You are only wretched and unworthy if you choose to be

Reminds me of a quote I once read, I think from Dante.

The sense of it goes like this:

People live in despair with their eyes fixed on the ground while the stars wheel in the heavens above them.

Anyone have the actual quote?

Re: "drunks don't think as much"

P.S. Are drunks thinking less, or just thinking less about what they are thinking?
