Dante

I recently finished re-reading a collection of anecdotes. Some of them struck as especially funny or interesting. I may post a few more of these in the future. Here's one that cracked me up.

Lope Félix de Vega Carpio was a Spanish playwright who lived from 1562-1635.

On his deathbed in 1635, Vega asked how much time he had left. Assured that his death was at hand, he murmured, "All right, then, I'll say it: Dante makes me sick."
