Do I dare disturb the universe?

S’io credesse che mia risposta fosse
A persona che mai tornasse al mondo,
Questa fiamma staria senza piu scosse.
Ma perciocche giammai di questo fondo
Non torno vivo alcun, s’i’odo il vero,
Senza tema d’infamia ti rispondo.
It is greater than love.
It is better than sex.
It is truer than faith.
Women will never understand it.
Men will never believe it.
History will never remember it.
I will spend all of my life in search of it.
What is it?

P.S. Below is the answer to last week's riddle of leaves.
It teaches men how to feed themselves, and when men are full and finished, worms riddle it with holes.
It turn strong blades with stronger ideas, yet is easily torn apart by children at play.
It bring tears by moving hearts, and men have killed over that ability.
It stops bullets with its thickness or its contents, and time is frozen inside its body for all to see at leisure.
It reveals stored secrets from dead men, and gods are eternally bound within its words and pages.
It is, of course, a book.
