Every human being must find a certain motivation or inspiration to give him the momentum he needs to achieve the goals he has in life. For some it is the incentive to be active, to complete tasks, even to do the mundane and simple tasks that life may require. Several influential people who have achieved a level of recognition in their life will give advice to those who are trying to succeed. Often these are words of encouragement during times we find tiring, their words are intended to help us weather the storms that may come during difficult times. Dante's Inferno is intended to motivate in a similar way to the modern-day successful attempt, only Dante uses his personal hell to create speculation and stimulate people to act with more moral behavior than they did in his times. The lines of the passage quoted above were not only written for the readers, but most likely also for the author, asking us to take courage even in difficult times and to move forward because there is still much to do. Dante uses many examples leading up to this point to motivate those who venture to read his poetry. For example, the angry and gloomy in the fifth circle of Dante's hell, the heretics in the sixth, and the violent in the third circle. Each depicts a punishment appropriate to the crime, and it is when these lines are spoken that we begin to connect the inspiring words to the very identity of the entire poem. One of the first punishments we observe comes from the fifth circle of Dante's hell, the wrathful and grumpy one, since the author expresses his thoughts on the right consequence of every sin by connecting it to the motivational passage in the twenty-fourth chapter...... half of sheet ......arming ourselves and the punishment is the incentive, the value of the body we have more or less in the same way as in the passage in the twenty-fourth canto is the incentive to continue even in difficult times. Humans are a generally lazy species and often need spiritual or emotional motivation before we are physically able to do what is expected of us both by others and personally. For Dante, at some point he needed self-improvement and consequently wrote the verses of canto twenty-four to create the motif for himself. Now his verses, not only in that part of the poem but the poem as a whole, serve as an inspiration to all who read his work. Whether it is the swamp of circle five, the morgue of circle six, or the forest of circle seven, each has its own purpose and is designed to inspire moral behavior and the use of the talents an individual was given at birth..
