The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis. — Dante Alighieri
Sometimes a few words are enough to shift the way we see the day.
This quote doesn’t tiptoe. It kicks the door down and dares you to sit still. It’s not about fire and brimstone—it’s about conscience. About choosing to speak, act, or risk being swallowed by silence. And let’s be honest: silence often feels safer. But comfort and clarity rarely hang out in the same room.
Whether in big debates or personal moments, I’ve learned that neutrality is still a choice. And not always the right one. Choosing a side doesn’t mean being reckless—it means being responsible.
