this isn't really a quote, but it is two stanza from Dante's Inferno translated by Allen Mandelbaum. i always loved these poetic and flowing lines:

and he who spends his life without renown

leaves such a vestige of himself on earth

as smoke bequeaths to air or foam to water.."



so there ya go. hope you can use it. :)
