Tanto si dà quanto trova d'ardore;
sì che, quantunque carità si stende,
cresce sovr'essa l'etterno valore.

E quanta gente più là sù s'intende,
più v'è da bene amare, e più vi s'ama,
e come specchio l'uno a l'altro rende.

Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy,
Purgatorio Canto XV. Lines 67-75

That infinite ineffable goodness/Which is above, runs to love as surely/As a light ray to a bright surface

It gives itself in the measure it finds/The greater the love/ the more eternal goodness pours on the soul

And the more people who turn to each other/The more there are to love and the more there is of love/As with a mirror, each reflects the light and the other.
